Record-Breaking Field Converges for 2023 College Disc Golf National Championship

The 2023 College Disc Golf National Championship is set to be one of the biggest and most competitive events yet, with an unprecedented number of participants. Taking place over four days at the North Cove Leisure Club in Marion, North Carolina, the tournament promises to be an exciting spectacle for fans of the sport.

This year's event has attracted a record-breaking field of 700 players from more than 80 schools across the country. Among them are several top contenders who have been training hard to take home the coveted title. One team that stands out is Missouri, the defending national champions who swept the Division I team titles in 2022 and return with many of their key players this year.

The Tigers will be facing stiff competition from other top teams such as Ferris State and Liberty, which have been stalwarts of the College Disc Golf National Championship for years. However, there are also new faces in the mix, with several schools entering the event looking to make a strong impression.

In singles action, Robert Burridge's departure from the championship has opened up opportunities for other players to step into the spotlight. Last year's runner-up Evan Cole and Collin Thompson will be among those vying for the top prize, along with Whitney Brown who is back to defend her Women's DI title.

For fans of the sport, there are several ways to keep up with the action. Next-day coverage of the Men's and Women's Division I matches will be available on the PDGA's YouTube channel, courtesy of Central Coast Disc Golf and Sky Hyzer Productions. Live scoring can also be accessed through the PDGA Live app or website.

With so many talented players in attendance, the 2023 College Disc Golf National Championship is shaping up to be an event not to miss.
