The University of the Cumberlands (UC) Men's
Golf team came into the week looking to stay unbeaten during the spring
season, garnering two big tournament wins thus far.
This week, the Patriots travelled to Campbellsville, Kentucky to compete in the 2016 Mid-South Conference (MSC) Spring Invite at Campbellsville Country Club.
UC showed their team's depth and poise again as they won their 3rd straight tournament of the season and this particular tournament for the 2nd year in a row.
The Patriots shot an opening round score of 291, but had only a three shot lead heading into the final round over rival Lindsey Wilson College.
During a very tough 2nd round where UC's lead went up and down, they never found themselves out of the top spot on the leaderboard. The Patriots fired a 2nd round score of 306 for a two-day total of 597, finally coming away with a four shot win over the Blue Raiders.
Callum McGuigan from Crieff finished tied 14th with scores of 73-79 for 152.
BY THE NUMBERS
UP NEXT
The Patriots have a short turnaround as they will now travel to Indianapolis, Indiana on April 11th-12th to compete in the NAIA Classic at Brickyard Crossing.
