Florida State and Auburn to meet for NCAA men’s golf title

Associated Press  

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. The Seminoles reached their first championship match by beating Georgia Tech in another semifinal decided in extra holes when Tyler Weaver outlasted Kale Fontenot in 19 holes. British Amateur champion Christo Lamprecht, the top-ranked amateur in the world ranking, was back in the lineup for Georgia Tech after missing three days with a back injury, and he had control of his match against Luke Clanton of Florida State. They went down the first, and Fontenot three-putted from long range to give Weaver the win and send Florida State into the championship match Wednesday.
