The 1994 NCAA Rifle Championships were contested at the 15th annual competition to determine the team and individual national champions of NCAA co-ed collegiate rifle shooting in the United States. The championship was hosted by the Murray State University in Murray, Kentucky.[1]

Alaska upset six-time defending champions West Virginia to capture the team championship. It was the first championship for the Nanooks, who finished 7 points ahead of the Mountaineers in the standings.

The individual champions were, for the smallbore rifle, Cory Brunetti (Alaska), and Nancy Napolski (Kentucky), for the air rifle.

Qualification
