MUNCIE, IND. - - The Ball State women's golf team closes the fall portion of its 2026-27 slate starting Sunday at the Diamante Intercollegiate hosted by Little Rock at the Diamante Country Club in Hot Springs Village, Arkansas.
The Cardinals are one of 20 teams competing in the event and enter the tournament at the top-ranked team among the field in the initial release of the 2026-27 SCOREBOARD powered by clippd rankings.
Ball State was ranked 91st nationally, marking the first time the Cardinals have been ranked inside the top 100 since the end of the 2009-10 campaign when the team was 93rd.
This will be the fifth consecutive season Ball State has finished its fall slate on the par 72, 6,051-yard Diamante Country Club course, which has seen some of the best team and individual performances in program history.
Last season, Ball State produced its first-ever sub-par 54-hole tournament team score on the course, placing fourth among the 18-team field at -2 (862). The effort was led by what is now the third-lowest 18-hole team score in program history at -6 (282) in the first round. Last season's squad also set the lowest 36-hole team score in the record books on the course with a -2 (574).
Individually, Kiah Parrott's 54-hole score of -7 (209) in the 2023 event still stands as the second-best mark in program history. In addition, two of the program's 12 individual rounds of 68-or-lower have come on the course.
It is a great setup for a Cardinals squad looking to continue shattering records this season. Ball State's golfers turned in the lowest 54-hole team score in program history on its way to winning the 2026 Brittany Kelly Classic with a team score of -6 (858).
The team has also shot a program-record -7 (281) in the final rounds of both the Brittany Kelly Classic and the Golfweek Red Sky Classic.
Individually, freshman Taylor Larkins shot -4 (68) in the second round of both events, while junior Sophie Korthuijs added a -4 (68) in the final round of the Golfweek Red Sky Classic.
Those efforts help the Cardinals enter the weekend with a 296.08 team scoring average, which is on pace to shatter the single-season mark for the fourth consecutive season. The current record is 299.24 set last season.
