NOTES | RESULTS
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.---The Chattanooga Mocs men's golf team finished 10th at the Tar Heel Intercollegiate today. The Mocs shot 871 over their 54 holes to end up ahead of Charlotte and Mercer in 11th and 12th, respectively.
“We're not pleased with this finish, but we are making progress,” said coach Mark Guhne. “We just didn't get the low round on the second or third day. If we get that low round, we are looking at a whole different deal.”
Wes Gosselin was the top Moc with a 1-under 215 to tie for 19th. The score and finish are the best of his career in a team event. He played 2 under over his final 36 holes at UNC Finley Golf Course.
Two shots behind Gosselin tying for 23rd was Ewan Scott. Scott's 217 included an opening round 68. Liam Johnston and Brooks Thomas tied for 46th at plus five. Thomas matched Gosselin for low round today with a level-par 72. Andrew Weathers was one off Gosselin and Thomas today shooting 73 and finishing with a 228.
North Carolina won its tournament with a 26 under total of 838. UNCG and East Carolina tied for second at 861 (-3). The Tar Heels' Ben Griffin captured medalist honors shooting 10 under. Furman's Bryce Howell and GRU Augusta's Maverick Antcliff tied for second at 8 under.
The Mocs have a little time off before the next event. The squad heads to the Wolf Run Intercollegiate September 22-23. The tournament, hosted by Indiana, is at Wolf Run Golf Club in Zionsville, Ind.
