BIG EAST Release
NEW YORK – Marquette University freshman men's golfer Vincent Cervantes was named the BIG EAST Conference Male Golfer of the Week for the first time in his career, the league announced on Thursday.
Cervantes fired a 6-under 64 in Tuesday's final round of the Irish Creek Collegiate to earn the first medalist honor of his college career. Alongside a 4-under 66 from junior Johan Widal and a 2-under 68 from senior Max Lyons, Cervantes helped the Golden Eagles secure their third event win (-5, 284-271—655) of the year as they outpaced the tournament field by 13 strokes. The event was play at The Club at Irish Creek in Kannapolis, North Carolina.
With a clean, six-birdie card on Tuesday, Cervantes outlasted Charleston Southern's Layne Lambert on two playoff holes (Nos. 18 and 1) and broke a tie to earn the individual title (-4, 72-64—136). Cervantes is the first MU freshman to win an individual crown since former Marquette All-American Hunter Eichhhorn claimed the 2018 BIG EAST Individual Championship at Callawassie Island.
Cervantes's 64 on Tuesday marks a new collegiate best and seven of the 10 rounds he has carded this spring have been par-or-better.
The Golden Eagles return to action on Easter weekend in the Boilermaker Invitational on April 19-20 at Ackerman-Allen Course in West Lafayette, Indiana at the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex.
