WEST LAFAYETTE, IND. – Senior Lloyd Jefferson Go (Guadalupe Cebu City, Philippines) ended his legendary collegiate career for Seton Hall with a shot a 4-over-par, 76, in the final round of the 2017 West Lafayette NCAA Regional on Wednesday.
Go notched birdies on holes No. 6 and No. 14 in route to his second straight 76, the final round of his college career.
The two-time BIG EAST Golfer of the Year finished the tournament with an 11-over-par, 75-76-76-227, tied for 40th place among 75 individual golfers.
In order for Go to have advanced to the National Championship, Go would have needed to be the top individual golfer that is not a member of the five teams advancing. UNLV, Auburn, Illinois, New Mexico and host Purdue all advanced. Finishing seventh overall was Illinois State's Trent Wallace at 1-over-par for the tournament. He advances as the lone individual from the West Lafayette Regional.
Tournament Details:
2017 WEST LAFAYETTE REGIONAL
Host: Purdue University
Location: West Lafayette, Ind.
Course: Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex – Kampen Course
Details: Par-72, 7,411 yards
Dates: May 15-17, 2017, Three Rounds
The Course:
The Kampen Course is a unique links-style layout with strategically placed waste bunkers, native grasslands, man-made wetlands and large greens. Measuring over 7,400 yards from the championship tees and just over 5,000 from the forward tees, it's a true test of golf for all players. Difficulty exponentially increases as the tee-choice moves back so great emphasis should be placed on the proper set of tees to play.
The Kampen Course, a Pete Dye design, is an 18-hole, links-style, par-72 championship golf course featuring large bent-grass greens, fairways and tees. The layout presents a challenge for golfers of all abilities with vast sand bunkers, native grasslands, ponds and a natural celery bog. Kampen offers five sets of tees with the championship tees playing over 7,400 yards and the forward tees playing at 5,300 yards.
Kampen is rated one of the top collegiate courses in the nation and has been awarded 4.5 stars on Golf
Digest's "Places to Play." Kampen receives high marks as it is ranked as one of the most difficult golf courses in Indiana. The course has also played host to a number of prestigious collegiate and public tournaments such as the 2000 Men's Big Ten Championship, the 2003 Women's NCAA Championship, the 2004 Indiana Open, the 2005 Women's Western Amateur, and the 2008 Men's NCAA Championship.
