MOBILE, Ala. – The Kent State men's golf team concluded their opening tournament of the Spring season on Tuesday with the third and final round of the Hal Williams Intercollegiate contested at RTJ Magnolia Grove Golf Club. The Flashes fired an impressive 12-under-par 272 in round three to conclude the event in second place at 24-under-par.
Kent State narrowly missed out on finishing atop the team leaderboard, as no. 15 SMU concluded their tournament at 25-under-par, one stroke ahead of the Flashes. Entering round three, the Mustangs held an eight-stroke advantage over the Flashes. However, a tournament-best team round of 12-under-par enabled the Flashes to nearly mount the large comeback.
