Women's Golf Announces 2024-25 Schedule

MUNCIE, Ind. - - The 2025 Mid-American Conference Women's Golf Championships is coming to the Delaware Country Club April 20-22 according to the schedule released Tuesday (Aug. 13) by Ball State head coach Cameron Andry.

The league's premier event, which will be making its first appearance in Muncie since its inception in 1999, is one of three tournaments the Cardinals will host over the course of its 2024-25 slate.

Ball State's first hosting opportunity will be Sept. 16-17 when it returns to The Players Club at Woodland Trails for the third annual Brittany Kelly Classic. It is an event the Cardinals won last season, and which sparked the first of several program records during the year.

BSU's second hosting opportunity will be a little further away, but also at a familiar location, when it returns to the Flamboyan Course at the Wyndham Palmas Golf & Beach Resort for the Puerto Rico Shootout. The three-day tournament will run March 4-6 during the program's spring break.

Overall, the Cardinals' 2024-25 slate features 10 tournaments running up to the 2025 MAC Women's Golf Championships. Each will give BSU's student-athletes an opportunity to build on last season's record-setting campaign.

In fact, the Cardinals return eight of its nine golfers which helped establish a new program standard for scoring average at 303.61 strokes, nearly three strokes better than the previous mark of 306.59 set in 2020-21. Last season also saw the team establish program records for lowest team round (285 / -3), lowest 36-hole total (580 / +4) and lowest 54-hole total (865 / +1).

In fact, the Cardinals broke the 54-hole scoring record twice on the year, starting with an 875 (+11) on its way to capturing the Brittany Kelly Classic (Sept. 4-5, 2024) title. The record would last for a little over a month, as Ball State closed the fall with an 865 (+1) effort at the Diamante Intercollegiate (Oct. 22-24, 2024).

Ball State will look to build on last season's momentum starting Sept. 2-3 when it travels to the Boilermaker Fall Classic (Sept. 2-3) hosted by Purdue. The team's fall slate will also feature the Lady Paladin Invitational (Sept. 20-22) hosted by Furman and the Loyola Parkinson Invitational (Oct. 7-8) hosted by Loyola, before culminating at the same Diamante Intercollegiate (Oct. 20-22) course in Hot Springs, Arkansas, where the program shattered several program records in an event hosted by Little Rock.

The Cardinals return to action after winter break at the Rust Buster Invitational (Feb. 10-11) in Clermont, Florida. Following the Rio Verde Invitational (Feb. 21-23) hosted by Western Michigan at the Rio Verde Country Club in Arizona, Ball State will host its event in Puerto Rico.

The stretch run to the MAC Championships will see the Cardinals close the regular season at the Georgia State Invitational (March 24-25) and at the Therese Hession Buckeye Invitational (April 12-13) hosted by Ohio State.
