COLLEGE PARK, MD. - The 2021-22 Maryland women's golf schedule was announced today by head coach Kelly Hovland, featuring 11 regular season tournaments across eight states.
The Terrapins are adding five additional stops to the tournament lineup after a limited schedule in 2020-21 due to pandemic restrictions. This year's schedule will be full of competitive play coming off of one of Maryland's best season's on-course, finishing runner up at the Big Ten Championship and making the school's first appearance at NCAA Championships.
"We're excited to compete against some of the best teams in the country," said head coach Kelly Hovland. "The level of competition at these stellar world-class golf courses will help prepare us for the Big Ten Championship and postseason play."
Returners this year include Lena Capoccia after sitting much of the previous season due to injury, Maria Vittoria Corbi, who started in all six tournaments last season, Patricie Mackova, who finished in 11th at the Big Ten Championship, and Angela Garvin and Elena Verticchio who where both selected to the Big Ten All-Academic roster.
Newcomers include freshman Panassaya "Aom" Somchit of Bangkok, Thailand, and transfer sophomore Karla Vázquez Setzer of Villahermosa, Mexico.
"The team is looking forward to returning to some of past events and as well as some new additions like the Tar Heel Invite," said Coach Hovland.
Postseason play consists of NCAA Regionals (locations to be announced later this season) and NCAA Championships taking place at the Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona.
