The race for eight on Monday at the men’s NCAAs started tight, but when the dust settled it was Oklahoma who snuck inside the match play cut line and Arizona State who was left on the outside looking in.
“Super excited to be here, obviously yesterday we got in by the skin of our teeth and today we didn’t have anything to lose,” said Sooners coach Ryan Hybl. “Our guys hung in there and they fought and they did a really great job today. It was awesome.”
Oklahoma, who only made it to Monday via a new tiebreaker, shot a 3-under 277 to get into the match play portion of the tournament after entering the day nine shots out of eighth place.
