KENT, Ohio – The Mid-American Conference Champion Kent State women's golf team will travel to Las Vegas for the regional round of the 2024 NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championship.
Regional play will get underway on Monday, May 6, at Spanish Trail Country Club (Par 72, 6,400 yards). The Golden Flashes will have some familiarity with the course, having played it just last year at The Show where they finished 11th overall.
The Golden Flashes earned the No. 10 seed in the Las Vegas Regional after winning their 25th-consecutive conference title on Tuesday. Hester Sicking and Leon Takagi finished as co-champions as both entered the club house at 6-over par while Veronika Kedronova placed third individually after shooting 8-over. Kent State remains the only MAC school to ever hoist the championship trophy.
Joining the Flashes in Nevada will be top-seeded UCLA, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida State, California, Purdue, Baylor, Oklahoma, Colorado State, Xavier, and Dartmouth. Individuals from UNLV, New Mexico, Texas Tech, Princeton, and Northern Arizona will also compete.
The top five teams and the low individual not on an advancing team from each regional site will advance to compete in the national championships to be played May 17-22 at Omni La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, California.
