PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas — Fresh off capturing the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Championship, the Prairie View A&M Lady Panthers women's golf team is set to take the national stage as they head to Waco, Texas for the 2026 NCAA Division I Women's Golf Regionals.
The NCAA Division I Women's Golf Committee officially announced the 396 participants selected to compete across six regional sites, with Prairie View A&M earning a spot in the highly competitive Waco Regional. The three-day event is scheduled for May 11–13 and will be hosted by Baylor at Ridgewood Country Club.
The Lady Panthers enter the field as the No. 12 seed and will compete against some of the nation's top programs, including No. 1 Texas A&M, No. 2 Oregon, No. 3 Tennessee, and host No. 5 Baylor. The regional field also features LSU, TCU, SMU, Tulsa, Colorado, Northern Arizona, and Tarleton State.
Prairie View A&M's postseason berth comes after a dominant performance at the SWAC Championships, where the Lady Panthers showcased consistency, composure, and championship pedigree en route to the conference title. Their success has earned them the opportunity to compete for a coveted spot in the NCAA Championships.
At each of the six regional sites, 12 teams and six individual golfers will compete, with only the top five teams advancing to the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championships, scheduled for May 22–27 at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, California. Additionally, the top individual not on an advancing team from each regional will also move on to the national championship field.
With momentum on their side, the Lady Panthers will look to carry their championship form into Waco as they tee off against elite competition with a chance to extend their historic season on the national stage.
Championship play in Carlsbad will be hosted by the University of Texas, with the final three days broadcast live on GOLF Channel.
