Everett wins NCAA title; final eight teams set

Related Topics: Everett, Washington

Augusta University's Broc Everett defeated Auburn's Brandon Mancheno in a sudden-death playoff to win the NCAA individual title while Texas A&M edged Vanderbilt for the eighth and final spot in the match-play portion of the team competition.

Everett captured the individual title with a 15-foot birdie on the first playoff hole at Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla. Both players finished the tournament at 7-under 281 after Everett missed a 12-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole that would have ended things in regulation.

This marked the first playoff in the individual race since 2014, when Stanford's Cameron Wilson defeated Georgia Tech's Ollie Schniederjans.
