Due to severe winter weather affecting power and transportation in Oxford, Mississippi, the 2026 Patriot Rifle Conference (PRC) Championships will no longer be held at Ole Miss. Organizers have moved the event to The X Count in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The tournament is scheduled for February 6-8.

The X Count previously hosted last season’s conference championships. At that event, Alaska secured its fourth conference title with an aggregate score of 4758-363x. The team placed first in both smallbore and air rifle disciplines, scoring 2367 and 2391 respectively, and set new program records in aggregate and air rifle categories.

All seven teams are expected to participate in the relocated PRC Championships in Indiana. Admission will be free for attendees.

“Due to winter storm conditions impacting local power and transportation, as well as inclement colder climates, Oxford, Miss. and Ole Miss will no longer host the 2026 PRC Championships,” according to the official announcement.
