Â

Matthew Zakutney had scores of 75-76-75=224 which was good for a spot in 26th place. Gabe Wheeler posted scores of 71-76-77=224, but his first round score was disqualified.
Â
The Racers posted scores of 287-298-295=880 to finish fourth in the field of 11 teams. The Racers trailed winner UT Martin at 860. John A. Logan (866) placed second and Incarnate Word (874) placed third. The rest of the field included: Alabama State (882), Austin Peay (885), Alcorn State (903), Tennessee State (904), Union (TN) (911), Bethel (TN) (921) and Rend Lake (945).
Â
Murray State's Lance Davis placed second among the 12 solo players in the field with scores of 77-75-71=223. Other MSU finishes included Justin Wendling in 37th place with scores of 73-77-78=228, while Daniel Taylor placed 39th on scores of 81-76-72=229. He shared 39th place with Cole Manion who had scores of 76-76-77=229.

Â
Tournament Notes
Lance Davis and Austin Knight each made an eagle for the Racers, as two of the nine eagles the field made in the 54-hole event. Knight was tied for sixth in par-5 scoring as he played Paris Landing's par-5 holes 3-under par for the event. Davis was tied for first in the event in par-3 scoring at 1-under par.
Â
Matthew Winder had seven birdies in his first round 70 (-2), which led to the lowest score for the Racers in the event. Winder was fifth overall with 10 total birdies.
Â
Justin Wendling led the Racers with 37 total pars in the event and he was fourth in the field.
Â
The next fall event for the Racers takes them to a course that no current player has played as a member of the Murray State team. The Ohio Valley Conference is well acquainted with Greystone GC as it hosted the Ohio Valley Conference Championship in a four-year span from 2010-13. It was here that Racer coach Eddie Hunt won his first OVC title in 2010.
