DU Panther Invite

The DU Panther Invite (Davenport Panther Invitational) is organized and operated by the Davenport University Athletics Department in coordination with host facilities such as Stonehedge Golf Club and Stoatin Brae Golf Club. The World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) sanctioned NCAA Division II collegiate tournament features 3 rounds (54 holes) of individual and team gross stroke play, typically fielding a competitive regional grid of 10 to 18 university programs and over 80 student-athletes representing top collegiate programs across the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC), GLVC, and Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC). Serving as a marquee ranking showcase on the Midwest regional NCAA Division II calendar, the event awards student-athletes national stroke-play order of merit points, WAGR allocations, and NCAA regional postseason qualifying standings. Competitors participate through official team selection and roster qualification managed directly by participating NCAA member institution athletic programs adhering to varsity eligibility guidelines.
