Quotable
"It's always fun to win, but it's never easy, even when you're 'supposed' to do it. I felt like we played a solid round today, but there is a lot we need to work on during the break." – Coach Blaine Woodruff
"Excited to see Ward get his first college win. It's pretty cool to have three individual titles in our five events this fall. It's time to reflect and be productive this offseason to prepare for the spring." – Woodruff

Notes
- Fourth tournament the program has won twice: Furman Intercollegiate (2008, 2022), J.T. Poston Invite (1986, 2020) & Palmetto Intercollegiate (2008, 2010).
- 12th team win and 11th medalist honor since Blaine Woodruff's arrival in the summer of 2022. Harris is the ninth different Moc to claim a win.
- Last time the Mocs went 1-2 in a tournament? 2023 Furman Intercollegiate. Paul Conroy claimed his second career win with an 8-under 206 which was one better than Samuel Espinosa in second and two clear of John Houk in third. There were two co-medalist wins in spring 2025 at the Bentwater Intercollegiate (Ethan Whitaker/Braedon Wear) and Donald Ross Collegiate (Camden Braidech/Garrett Engle).
- 206 is a new career best total for Harris. At 4 under, it's his ninth career tournament at par or better.
- 65 is a new career low total for Braidech. 5 under ties for his best vs par (67-2025 Donald Ross Collegiate).
- Brummitt's 69 ties for his low total with 69 in the second round last year at Erin Hills in the Marquette Intercollegiate.
- Brummitt's ace on 12 was with a 6 iron from 203 yards out. It's the first in competition by a Moc since April 2025 by Carson Johnson at Pasatiempo G.C. (Western Intercollegiate).
- Rogers has 11 par or better cards in 15 rounds this season. He is 26 under with a 69.07 stroke average.
- Rogers got his sixth top 5 finish. His 2 under final score is the eighth under par total in his last 10 tournaments (-49/69.47).
