The men’s Illinois golf team once again has forged their way into the match play portion of the national championship.
It has been a long time since the Illini have reached this level of the national championship. You have to go all the way back to 2021 to find the last time Illinois made it to the Elite 8 and competed head-to-head with another program. That is two whole seasons.
Illinois managed to get back to the Elite 8 by playing some of the best golf we have seen in a long time.
