CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – The Penn State women’s golf team will travel to the Bay State this weekend to compete in the Boston College Intercollegiate at Blue Hill Country Club on Monday and Tuesday.
The Nittany Lions will look to bounce back up north after a shaky weekend down south when they tackle the par-72, 6,137-yard course located in Canton, Massachusetts. The BC Intercollegiate, which was brought back in 2017, returns after a one-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic and features a 15-team field.
Monday will feature 36 holes of continuous play beginning with an 8:45 a.m. shotgun start while Tuesday’s final round will feature split tee times off holes #1 and #10 beginning at 8 a.m.
Live scoring will be available via GolfStat.
