WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue Women's Golf will open the 2023-24 campaign at home, hosting the Boilermaker Classic (Sept. 4-5) to highlight the team's upcoming season.
Kicking off the second season under head coach Zack Byrd, Purdue will welcome 14 schools to West Lafayette for the Boilermaker Classic. The 54-hole stroke play tournament will be contested on the Kampen-Cosler Course at the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex.
The tournament is looking for volunteers for a variety of jobs during the two-day event. Anyone interested in volunteering for the Boilermaker Classic can contact assistant coach Lauren Guiao at lguiao@purdue.edu.
After the season-opening home tournament, the Boilermakers travel to nine different states and Puerto Rico as part of their schedule. Purdue goes from West Lafayette to East Lansing for the Mary Fossum Invitational (Sept. 17-18), hosted by Michigan State. Rounding out the month of September, the Boilermakers compete in the Schooner Collegiate in Norman, Oklahoma (Sept. 23-25). Purdue ends the fall in traditional fashion, traveling to Wilmington, North Carolina for the Landfall Tradition (Oct. 27-29). The Boilermakers have wrapped up every fall season there since 2011.
Flipping the calendar to 2024, an old mainstay is back on the schedule to begin the spring season. For the first time since 2020, the Boilermakers serve as hosts of the Puerto Rico Classic at Grand Reserve Golf Club in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Feb. 4-6). A regular on the Purdue schedule from 2003-2020, the tournament makes its triumphant return following a three-year hiatus. Purdue remains south in February, teeing it up at the Spartan Sun Coast Invitational in Sarasota, Florida (Feb. 18-19).
Beginning in March, which features a trio of tournaments, the Boilermakers make the trek west for The Show in Las Vegas (March 4-5). One week later, Purdue competes in the Briar's Creek Invitational on the coast of South Carolina (March 11-12). Closing out a busy stretch, the Boilermakers return to The Bruzzy Challenge at Dornick Hills Country Club in Oklahoma (March 30-31).
In the final tune-up before the conference championship, Purdue tees off at the Lady Buckeye Invitational in Columbus, Ohio (April 15-16). After back-to-back years at Fox Chapel Golf Club in Pittsburgh, the Big Ten Championship (April 19-21) moves to Bulle Rock Golf Course in Havre de Grace, Maryland, just outside of Baltimore.
Rounding out the schedule, the Boilermakers plan to hear their names called for postseason play in one of six NCAA Regionals (May 6-8) with sights set on a trip to the NCAA Championships in Carlsbad, California (May 17-22).
Purdue returns a plethora of talent for the 2023-24 campaign, bringing back five golfers that competed in at least eight tournaments a season ago. Momo Sugiyama leads the way after earning All-Big Ten accolades in her first season as a Boilermaker. Kan Bunnabodee, a 2022 First Team All-Big Ten honoree, played in all eight spring tournaments after missing the fall due to injury. Ashley Kozlowski cracked the lineup 11 times throughout 2022-23, and Jocelyn Bruch reached double digits with 10 tournament appearances. Jade Gu made an impact as a redshirt freshman, competing in eight events.
