Tyler Green finishes 3-0 at opening event in Florida

DADE CITY, Fla. -- The Ball State men's golf team defeated DePaul, 3.5 to 2.5, in Tuesday's final round of the Earl Yestingsmeier Match Play. The Cardinals had previously split two matches on the opening day of the event.

With two total points for wins in two of its three matches, the Cardinals tied with Drake for second place of the six teams competing at Lake Jovita. UConn defeated Evansville in its final match to close out an unbeaten, untied week and finish as champion with three points.

Ball State's Tyler Green won his match against DePaul by a 4&3 score Tuesday to finish 3-0 individually for the week. It was the largest margin of victory for Green who clinched all three of his matches before reaching the final hole.

Junior college transfer Sterling McIlravy, who made his Cardinals debut Monday with a 4&3 victory, topped it with a 5&4 win Tuesday for the largest victory margin of any BSU player this week. He finished 2-1 on the week.

Joey Ranieri won at the No. 1 spot in the lineup and Joey Wiseman secured a tie at the No. 4 spot to account for the Cardinals' other points on the day.

This week's match play event served as Ball State's 2021 season opener and was the team's first competitive action in 11 months. The Cardinals will return to action March 7-8 with SMU's Trinity Forest Invitational in Dallas.
