In a stunning rally, Marquette men’s golf cut a 17-stroke deficit the final day to claim the team title at the BIG EAST Championships with a final score of +35, edging out Seton Hall by just one stroke. Freshman Matthew Bachmann also claimed the individual medal with an even-par 216 score to give the Golden Eagles a sweep of the awards.
Heading into the day, Marquette trailed DePaul, who carded a 294 team score day two. However, a Blue Demon collapse opened the door for the Golden Eagles, and they took advantage by registering a team score 0f -2 on the final day.
