MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Junior Max Green picked up two victories on Monday to lead the West Virginia University golf team at the Big 12 Match Play Championship at The Clubs at Houston Oaks in Hockley, Texas, on Monday.
The Mountaineers defeated No. 22 Texas Tech, 3-1-1, in the morning session and fell to Oklahoma State, 3-1-1, Monday afternoon. Green led the Mountaineers with wins in each match.
Green, Carson Kammann and Kaleb Wilson picked up victories against Texas Tech. Playing in his first Big 12 Match Play Championship, Kammann, a sophomore transfer, recorded a 3&2 victory over Tim Wiedemeyer. Kammann came back to win the match after trailing by two three holes in.
Green defeated Tyran Snyders, 1UP, and Wilson downed Ben Gregg, 1UP. Both matches were back-and-forth with the lead never increasing by more than one for either team.
Jackson Davenport tied Calum Scott, while Todd Duncan fell to Matthew Comegys, 2UP.
Against Oklahoma State, Green led from start to finish to down Gaven Lane, 2UP. Davenport tied his second match of the day against Johnnie Clark.
"I'm really proud of the guys today," coach Sean Covich said. "We battled hard against a great team this afternoon, came up just short. This morning showed what we're capable of, defeating a Top 25 team.
"Max Green had a solid day going undefeated. Kaleb and Carson really played well in the morning. Jackson was clutch earning half a point in each match. Todd was close this morning and will bounce back. We need a good session tomorrow morning and anything can happen."
WVU will face Kansas in the morning session on Tuesday with bracket play starting in the afternoon session.
