Florida State and Auburn will face off in the championship match with a chance for each school to win their first national NCAA title in men's golf. Both teams needed a final point from extra holes. Auburn freshman Jackson Koivun denied Ohio State's Adam Wallin another remarkable comeback.
CARLSBAD, Calif. — Auburn freshman Jackson Koivun got up-and-down for birdie from a back bunker on the 21st hole Tuesday to beat Adam Wallin of Ohio State and send the Tigers into the championship match against Florida State, with both teams seeking their first title in NCAA men’s golf.
Koivun was 2 up with two to play when Wallin hit his approach to 6 feet for a conceded birdie on the 17th, and Koivun took bogey on the par-5 18th hole with Wallin in tight for birdie to force extra holes. And then it went all wet. Lamprecht was 2 up with five holes to play when he took bogey on the 14th to lose the hole and went into the water on the 15th and made double bogey. Then, his gap wedge to the par-3 16th came up short and rolled back into the water.
“Those guys did their job,” Florida State coach Trey Jones said. “For Luke to come back against Christo shows a lot about Luke Clanton. We’re going to get our opportunity now.”
