UCF Women’s Golf Clinches 20th NCAA Postseason Appearance

Another UCF team is headed to the NCAA Tournament.

The No. 14 women's golf team was selected to compete as the No. 3 seed in the Ann Arbor Regional, clinching its seventh-consecutive appearance at the premiere postseason competition. The seeding marks their highest in program history and is also the best of any Big 12 Conference team in this year's competition.

The women's golf team is the eighth UCF program to compete at an NCAA postseason regional or championship event in 2025-26, joining cross country, men's and women's soccer, indoor track & field, men's basketball and men's and women's tennis.

Postseason Outlook

UCF's regional includes Southern California as the top seed, followed by Duke, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Northwestern, Kansas, Texas Tech, UNLV, Columbia, Quinnipiac and Oakland.

The three-day event begins Monday, May 11, at University of Michigan Golf Course hosted by Michigan. The Knights are familiar with the course as they were previously selected for the same regional in 2022.

The top five teams to finish at each of the six regional sites will advance to the NCAA Championship, which will be held May 22-27 at the Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, California.

UCF's Road to the NCAA Tournament

This will be UCF's 20th regional appearance and the 11th of the last 15 seasons. Since head coach Emily Marron took over the program ahead of the 2012-13 season, the Knights have either qualified as a team or sent an individual to every NCAA regional.

The Knights have been nationally ranked all season and recently placed among the top three at the Big 12 Championship for their highest finish since joining the conference in 2023-24.

Sophomore Mila Jurine, a communication major from France, was crowned as the first individual Big 12 champion in UCF women's golf history. Jurine and senior psychology major Pimpisa Sisutham were named to the Big 12 Tournament Team.
