2024 College Disc Golf National Championships Results
Disc Golf’s Rising Stars
The 2024 College Disc Golf National Championships showcased the top rising talent in our sport. From wire-to-wire wins to multi-hole playoffs, every division had exciting storylines well worth watching.
Team Results
The Team format in college disc golf adds a community-building element to an otherwise individual sport. Last week, over 200 teams competed across all divisions.
In the Men’s D1 finals, UNC Charlotte got off to a brutal start. They burned through a four stroke lead to find themselves down two to the returning champs, Cincinnati. On hole 18, UNC’s Glenn Fister had one last chance to tie things up, a 50+ foot putt for Eagle. In the most memorable moment of the week, Fister drilled center chains to force the playoff. UNC ultimately took it down after three playoff holes.
