What were the odds of somebody in orange and black not named “Viktor” or “Matthew” winning the NCAA Championship this week at Blessings Golf Club in Fayetteville? Apparently better than I thought they were after 36 holes of play.
Sophomore Austin Eckroat leads everyone after shooting 69-69 in the first two rounds to get in at 6-under 138. Most notably, he’s up one on sophomore Matthew Wolff and Cal superstar Collin Morikawa. Oh, and the Pokes are up 12 on their next closest competition after firing a preposterous 276 on Saturday.
No other team was better than 287.
