AIKEN, S.C. --- The Chattanooga Mocs men's golf team finished ninth at the Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate. UTC shot a final round 294 for a 54-hole total of 877.
Today's 294 came from Steven Fox (Hendersonville, Tenn.), Stephan Jaeger (Munich, Germany), Liam Johnston (Dumfries, Scotland) and Alex Ratliff (Kingsport, Tenn.). Fox led the way with a 71 (+1) followed by Jaeger and Johnston at 73 (+3). Ratliff rounded out the team score with a 77 (+7).
Fox was one of one of seven golfers tied for 14th at 217 (+7). That was one better than Jaeger at 218, tied for 21st. Johnston and Ratliff wound up tied for 40th at 223. Davis Bunn (Knoxville, Tenn.) was four shots behind that duo at 227.
"It was a disappointing two days," said head coach Mark Guhne. "We didn't get that low score each round we needed. It's time to get back to work and prepare for the next event."
Clemson captured the team title shooting 854. The Tigers edged Virginia by one shot. South Carolina was third at 863.
Ben Kohles (Virginia) and Crawford Reeves (Clemson) entered the final round tied for the lead. The duo dueled to the end with Kohles winning by a shot with a final round 69 (-1) over Reeves' 70. Kohles shot two-under par 208 to Reeves' 209. Ben Rusch (Virginia) was third at two-over 212.
The Mocs return to the tee on March 18-20 for the Collegiate Match Play presented by Callaway. The event is played at the Concessions Golf Club in Bradenton, Fla.
