The Summit League and Sioux Falls are hosting a men's regional at the Sanford Center in 2021.  Don't think the Summit or a member school have ever hosted before.

North Dakota is the host.  Not the Summit League.

Are you talking for Men's basketball or for Hockey?  I don't see anything about Sioux Falls hosting for NCAA BBall?  Also, they are hosting hockey in 2018.

I was looking on the NCAA website thanks for the insight though. 

My mistake.  The site I was looking at had projected regionals, not actual chosen sites.

SF doesn't have airline connections and the Sanford Center isn't that big.

I was hoping they would get one I will be moving there this fall.

The Target Center in Mpls actually got the 2021 regional finals.

Guess airlines and hotel availability are much more important than the venue.

If it's for basketball, it being an NBA arena has a lot to do with it.

Places like Boise, Spokane, San Diego, Austin, Anaheim, Tulsa etc get regionals, as they have many flights and hotel options.

Regional finals often go to domed stadiums.  US Bank Stadium would have been a better choice.

The arena is undergoing a massive renovation, it should be more than adequate. 

The NCAA has basically stopped putting regional finals in domes, they now prefer to have them in NBA arenas.

Premier Center in SF holds 10,500 for Hockey.  Should be rockin with ND as the Host School.  Target Center will have completed their renovation  and will be a nice arena to host a Regional.  I have been to a Final 4 and Regional in domes and they are too big.

Final Fours are always going to played in NFL stadiums. US Bank Stafium is getting a Final Four.
