It was the site of the NAIA Men’s National Tournament in 1987, 1990 and 1992; hosted the Pepsi Junior Tour for nine years; and was the site of the 2012 NCAA Division III Women’s Golf National Championship. The Zollner Golf Course has also been the home for the Trine University’s men’s and women’s golf teams since the 1970s.
