Live Men's Scoring
Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University men's golf team will open NCAA Tournament action this week for the 13th consecutive year and fans can follow all the action online with live scoring via the internet.
The Bulldog men's golf team will open play in the 2015 Midwest/Central Super Regional starting on Monday at the Cog Hill Golf and Country Club in Lemont, Ill. The Midwest/Central Super Regional will be hosted by Lewis University and teams will play a single round on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (May 4-6) for a total of 54 holes.
The course features a par 72, 6,869 yards Dick Wilson and Joe Lee design, that challenges golfers with heavily bunkered obstacbles and large undulating greens. Tee times start at 8:30 a.m. (ET) for each of the three days of action.
The Midwest/Central Men's Golf Super Regional will consist of 10 teams from the Midwest Region along with 10 from the Central Region. Four individuals from each region will also compete.
At a minimum, the top three teams and the top two individuals not affiliated with a team from each regional (regardless of region) will advance to the 2015 NCAA-II Men's Golf Championships slated for May 18-22 at the Rock Barn Golf & Spa in Conover, N.C. The remaining eight berths into the national championships are allocated based on the regions represented in last year's match/medal portion of the championships with the maximum number of teams from a given region capped at seven. The finals will be hosted by Lenoir-Rhyne University.
Along with number seven seed Ferris State, those teams from the Midwest Region who will be making the super regional tourney appearance are top-seeded Indianapolis, Grand Valley State, Missouri-St. Louis, Tiffin, Lewis, Lake Superior State, FSU, Malone, Saginaw Valley State and Walsh in respective seeding order.
Central Missouri is the Central Region's top seed and followed by Central Oklahoma, Arkansas Tech, Southwestern Oklahoma State, Henderson State (Ark.), Northeastern State (Okla.), Southern Nazarene, Minnesota State, Washburn (Kan.) and Southeastern Oklahoma State.
Ferris State, under the direction of head coach Mike Mignano, posted a third-place performance at the 2010 NCAA-II Midwest/South Central Super Regional (May 3-5) in Duncan, Okla. The placing was high enough for the Bulldogs to make their 14th appearance at nationals in the program's history as FSU would register a school-best effort by tying for seventh place in the 2010 NCAA-II National Championships (May 18-21) in Noblesville, Ind.
A year ago (2014), FSU finished 13th in the super regional competition and failed to advance to the national championships in action at Eureka, Mo.
Ferris State's current 13-year NCAA Championship appearance streak in men's golf ranks as one of the longest active stretches in the country.
