Cowgirls to continue fall slate at Prairie Dunes Invitational
October 05, 2025 | Cowgirl Golf
HUTCHINSON, Kan. – Oklahoma State women's golf tees off at the Prairie Dunes Invitational (Oct. 6-7) this week, the team's third tournament of the 2025-26 season.
The acclaimed Prairie Dunes Country Club in Hutchinson, Kansas, hosts the tournament. Ranked by Golf Digest as the No. 1 course in the state, Prairie Dunes pairs a par-70, 6,005-yard layout with rural Kansan prairie grasses and sand dunes.
The Cowgirls look to continue their winning ways after picking up a tournament victory at the Schooner Fall Classic (Sept. 20-21), where their combined 822-stroke showing broke the program record for lowest 54-hole team score.
Format:
The Prairie Dunes Invitational is a 54-hole stroke-play tournament composed of three 18-hole rounds. The first two rounds will be played on Monday, while the third and final round tees off on Tuesday. Each of the 14 teams will bring five golfers, with the top four scores counting towards daily totals.
