HOWEY-IN-THE-HILLS, Fla. - A pair of freshmen paced the IUPUI men's golf team in its final round of the Horizon League Championships on Monday (Apr. 22) as the Jaguars put up a 3-over 291 on El Campeon at Mission Inn Resort. Both
Titus Boswell and
Brady Schier shot 1-under 71 to lead the way while
Morgan Tournemire shot 2-over 74.
IUPUI finished sixth of 10 teams at 895 (305-299-291) while Wright State earned the team title. WSU's Timmy Hollenbeck and Andrew Flynn finished tied atop the leaderboard at 6-under 210.
Boswell finished tied for tenth overall at 5-over 221 (75-75-71) while senior
Taylor Gardner closed at 225 (78-72-75).
"Man, we were really good for most of the day today," head coach
Jamie Broce said. "Titus played really well but just didn't get it to the finish. Brady was really, really solid and the other guys were pretty solid today too. We didn't quite get today's round to the finish line, but it was much better.
"I'm proud of these guys. Those two seniors - Taylor and Kevin - have had really good careers for us. They've continued to work and grind and improve on their games and been fun to coach. I think the freshmen have come a lot ways in a short amount of time and have big time futures. They're going to be fun because they just want to show up and get better and better."
Boswell was on fire for much of his round, making eagle on No. 14 to get him to 3-under through five holes. He got as low as 6-under after 15 holes, but closed going double bogey-double bogey-bogey to finish at 1-under. Schier was much the opposite, making three birdies on his first five holes to get to 2-under. He was back to 1-over late in the round before closing with back-to-back birdies to also finish at 1-under.
Tournemire made three birdies as part of his round while Gardner and Tillery had two each.
