5/1/2024 3:00:00 PM | Men's Golf
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The Indiana men's golf team has earned a bid to the 2024 NCAA West Lafayette Regional played at the Birck Boilermaker Golf Course, the NCAA announced on Wednesday via a selection show on The Golf Channel.
After making the 2021 NCAA Tallahassee Regional, the 2022 NCAA Palm Beach Gardens Regional, and the 2023 NCAA Auburn Regional, Indiana has made four-straight regional appearances as a team for the first time since making six-consecutive NCAA events from 2008-13. In total, the Hoosiers have made it to 13 NCAA Regionals under head coach Mike Mayer.
"We are thrilled to be going to West Lafayette," Mayer said. "We know that golf course extremely well. We have played there numerous times and we have won tournaments on that course. We are comfortable there.
"The field is going to be great in all six regionals, so that was not part of our concern. We wanted to stay on grass we were familiar with. We feel great about our chances of advancing to the NCAA Finals."
The 2024 NCAA Regionals will be held May 13-15 at one of six sites across the country: University of Texas Golf Club (Austin, Texas), University Club (Baton Rouge, La.), UNC Finley Golf Course, (Chapel Hill, N.C.), Farms Golf Club (Rancho Santa Fe, Calif.), Stanford Golf Course (Stanford, Calif.), Birck Boilermaker Golf Course (West Lafayette, Ind.).
Three regional sites will have 13 teams and 10 individuals competing and three will have 14 teams and five individuals. The top five teams (30 teams total) and the low individual not on an advancing team from each regional site (six individuals total) will advance to the NCAA Championships, set for May 24-29 at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, Calif.
