LECANTO, Fla. –Memphis shot a final round score of 281 – seven strokes under par and the second-lowest round in the tournament – to climb two spots on the final day, moving into a runner-up finish. The runner-up finish is the best for the Tigers as a member of the American Athletic Conference, and the best finish since 2012 when that squad won the Conference USA Championship.
The 281 for Memphis is tied for the lowest round by a Tiger team in a conference tournament since the 2008 squad shot an opening-round 277 in the C-USA Tournament.
