PHOENIX, Ariz. – The South Dakota State men's golf team finished in 10th place at the Loyola Intercollegiate Tuesday at Palm Valley Club.
The Jackrabbits posted a -5 final team score, finishing seven shots behind South Dakota, who finished seventh. Richmond went 34-under over three rounds to win the team title.
"I'm proud of the boys fight in our first event back," said head coach Parker Edens. "I'd wished we finished a couple rounds stronger but we are rusty coming out of winter. These were our first three rounds since October and that was difficult but we were better in some areas than I expected. Willy had a great week, his first top 25 in college and to be straight out of winter is impressive. I'm excited for the rest of the season!"
Jacob Wilson had an excellent third-round finish for the Jacks, a 68 (-4) with five birdies over 18 holes. He finished tied for 25th place (-3), up 34 spots from his position after round two on Monday.
Bryson Mercier finished tied for 30th place with a -2 final scorecard. Tyler Seeling was one shot back from Mercier, posting a -1 three-round scorecard to finish tied for 38th. Ty Adkins and Drew Teeter finished tied for 78th place with matching +5 final tallies.
Richmond's Carson Baez posted a -17 final tally to finish at the top of the individual leaderboard. SDSU finished ahead of Summit League foes North Dakota State and Omaha who placed 11th and tied for 13th, respectively.
