HOUSTON, Texas — Rice golf coach Justin Emil announced the release of the 2023-24 schedule Thursday afternoon.
The 11-tournament schedule will see the Owls compete in seven different states and two countries, including three tournaments in Texas.
"I couldn't be more excited to announce our schedule as we move to the AAC and make a run for postseason," said Emil. "Our schedule takes us to some great venues to compete against top competition. From Cabo, Mexico to right here in Houston, we have a big opportunity ahead of us. We have a talented team with some great new recruits joining us and I can't wait to see them out on the course."
