Heading into its fourth year, the SAS Championship HBCU Invitational will return in 2025 with another unique element. As part of the annual PGA Tour Champions Tournament, teams from leading Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) will compete for a share of $30,000 in awards, donated by SAS as honorariums to the winning teams’ golf operating budget. The tournament will take place on Oct. 11-12 at Prestonwood Country Club, with teams playing three rounds over the two days.

The SAS Championship, a PGA Tour Champions event in its 25th year in 2025, in collaboration with the PGA Tour and the Black College Golf Coaches Association, created the HBCU Invitational in 2022. The tournament is the first event of its kind to have student-athletes from HBCU schools compete at the same time and location as the pros from the PGA TOUR Champions. 2024 saw the addition of honorariums being donated to the winning schools, with $10,000 donated to each of the winning teams in the Men’s Division I, Men’s Division II and Women’s Division flights.

Play will start on Saturday, Oct. 11 with competitors playing a pair of rounds on the Fairways Course at Prestonwood Country Club, which also hosts the SAS Championship. Competition will close on Sunday, Oct. 12 with a third round followed by the crowning of the men’s and women’s Division I and Division II team champions as well as individual champions.

In advance of the competition on the course, analytics leader SAS will host a Career Day on SAS Campus on Friday, Oct. 10. The student-athletes will participate in an insightful and interactive session about career readiness and social media tips, including 1:1 LinkedIn profile coaching and the opportunity to receive a professional headshot. The participants will also learn about AI and using data for good, followed by lunch with SAS executives and employees. The student-athletes will also have a chance to meet both their fellow competitors and the pros from the PGA Tour Champions during the Champions Cookout, which will take place on Saturday following the first two rounds of play.

The full 2025 field will include 16 total teams, with nine of those teams attending for the first time. Alabama A&M, Southern, Texas Southern, Morehouse College, Kentucky St., and Fayetteville St., will all be competing for the first time at Prestonwood, with Southern and Texas Southern bringing both a men’s and women’s team. NC A&T will also see its men’s team attend for the first time after its women’s team joined in 2024.

The 2024 champions will all return this year. Arkansas-Pine Bluff won its first title last year and will defend it in the Men’s Division I field, while Livingstone will try to make it three straight championships in the Men’s Division II field. Alabama State returns as the defending Women’s Champion, winning for the first time in 2024.
