BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – WKU Men's Golf second-year head coach Austin King has announced their fall and spring slate for the 2024-25 season Monday morning.
"I'm very excited about our schedule this season. It's been a goal of mine to have a stronger schedule, and I feel like this season is a big step in the right direction," King said. "If our players want to play at the next level, I want them to be able to compete against the best players possible. We'll see Power 4 teams at most of these events and will also visit places where we've had past success."
The Hilltoppers will open their season in Ruston, Louisiana as they compete in the Argent Financial Classic. This WKU's first time traveling to Louisiana Tech since the 2021 season. Following this, the squad travels to Purdue to compete in the Purdue Fall Invitational for the second straight year.
The Tops wrap up September in Madison, Wisconsin for the Badger Invitational. The Red and White's October slate continues in Lexington for the Cullan Brown Intercollegiate, followed by the Furman Intercollegiate in Greenville, South Carolina to close out the fall season.
Opening spring, the Tops will take on the Mesquite Desert Classic, hosted by Eastern Kentucky. Up next for WKU will be the Seminole Intercollegiate where the Tops will be competing against the likes of Florida State and Arkansas. To round off march, the Tops travel to Memphis to compete in the Memphis Intercollegiate. This is the first time the Tops have competed in this tournament since the fall of 2017 where the Tops finished fourth.
Following Memphis, WKU will take on the Irish Creek Collegiate once again. Last season, the Red and White turned in a runner-up finish while having four players finish in the top-25.
For their final regular season tourney, Austin King's squad will travel to West Viriginia for the Mountaineer Invitational. The Tops finished third in this tournament last year against a field that consisted of St. John's, Xavier and West Virginia.
