COLUMBUS, IND. – The University of Missouri-St. Louis men’s golf team lost a 3-2 decision to Lewis on Tuesday in one of two semifinals of the GLVC Championship Match Play.
In standard stroke-play tournament scoring, the Tritons were four shots better than the Flyers, outscoring Lewis, 298-302. However, all five positions competed for one match point today, which enabled Lewis to win and advance to the championship against Indianapolis. The Greyhounds were a 5-0 winner over Bellarmine. All four teams qualified for match play after topping the 14-team GLVC field after Sunday’s and Monday’s 54-hole stroke-play portion.
