Adam Hermann | NCAA.com | November 1, 2017 Vanderbilt, USC roll as final pairings are set for Wednesday Will anyone be able to stand in the way of Will Gordon and Vanderbilt? Share Two days, two rounds of golf and two impeccably sunny skies are in the books at East Lake Golf Club, and with one day of the East Lake Cup to go, the final match play groupings are set: Vanderbilt’s men will face Illinois and USC’s women will take on upstart Arizona State. As for consolation matches, Oregon men will play Oklahoma and Northwestern women will face Stanford. In Tuesday’s roaring action, each side of the bracket saw plenty of late drama, including a No. 1 seed nearly falling on the women’s side. After Stanford dominated Monday’s individual stroke play, winning by six strokes, the Cardinal entered Tuesday as match play’s No. 1 seed, featuring two golfers — defending champion Andrea Lee and Shannon Aubert — who tied for second in stroke play. However, No. 4 seed Arizona State leaned on superb play from Olivia Mehaffey and a one-point 18th hole win by Linnea Strom to push all the gravity of the afternoon to an 18th hole tie between ASU's Roberta Liti and Stanford's Albane Valenzuela.

Tuesday’s second women’s match wasn’t as dramatic, as three of USC’s five finished their matches vs. Northwestern with two holes to go. The Wildcats’ Hannah Kim scored Northwestern's only win of the day, a 3 & 2 victory over Muni He.

If those pairings feel familiar, it’s because the same teams faced off in May’s DI semifinals. Weird, right? In May, Oregon and Oklahoma both prevailed before the Sooners won its second-ever national championship; this time around, the Commodores and Illini took revenge, setting up a Vanderbilt-Illinois match play final for Wednesday. Seven birdies? Yeah, that'll do. Theo Humphrey helped power the @vucommodores past Oregon. #AnchorDown pic.twitter.com/WVOmCZQYZF — Golf Channel (@GolfChannel) October 31, 2017 Monday’s individual stroke play winner, Will Gordon, set the tone early for Vanderbilt in its matches with Oregon. Gordon built off the momentum from a solid first day and took down the Ducks’ Edwin Yi, opening up a four-stroke lead by the turn and finish 4 & 3 on the day. Gordon’s teammates followed suit, as four of the Commodores’ five golfers won their respective matches Tuesday, with Oregon’s standout sophomore Norman Xiong (more on him tomorrow) landing the Ducks’ only win with a decisive 6 & 4 victory. A golfer with the last name Mulligan? Too good to be true! Heck of a putt by @GoDucks freshman @tmulligan37. #EastLakeCup pic.twitter.com/x49wL9IhZm — Golf Channel (@GolfChannel) October 31, 2017 Illinois’ win over Oklahoma was by a bit tighter margin of victory. The Illini’s Dylan Meyer and Nick Hardy won their respective matches without too much difficulty, but Oklahoma’s Garett Reband took down Giovanni Tadiotto with a 3 & 2 win, while the Sooners’ Riley Casey eked out a one-point win vs. Brendan O’Reilly. In the end, though, Casey’s win didn't matter as Illinois’ Justin Feagles pulled off a surprising win over Oklahoma standout Brad Dalke, who just didn’t have it Tuesday. Feagles’ 2 & 1 win was enough to put Illinois in the final pairing with Vanderbilt, for what should be one of two great finals matches on Wednesday. Happy Halloween from the #EastLakeCup.
