KENNESAW, Ga. - The IU Indianapolis men's golf team finished off a third-place finish at this week's Scrappy at Pinetree on Tuesday (Oct. 13), carding a final round, 2-over 290 at Pinetree Country Club. The Jaguars climbed four spots on the tournament's final day and posted the second best score of the field on Tuesday, behind only host Kennesaw State. IU Indy finished the tournament at 876 (301-285-290), shaking off a rough opening round to earn a third-place finish. 

Senior Brady Schier finished tied for seventh among the 69-player field at 1-over 217 (78-68-71) for the week, recording a second straight round of par or better. 

"I didn't get off to a great start to the tournament. I wasn't hitting my driver straight and had some bad three putts and had a very below average first round," Schier said. "I was hitting my irons well though, so that gave me some confidence. I put my driver away for the rest of the tournament and got some putts to go in to start the second round and rode that momentum for the rest of the tournament and tried to make as many birdies as I could. 

"The last day was a grind. I hit it well, but had some really bad bogeys scattered throughout the round, so I had to just keep my head down and make some birdies down the stretch to keep me under par."

Schier was at or under par throughout his final round, making birdie on his third hole as part of a five birdie round. He finished the tournament second overall with 14 birdies, trailing only Alabama's Michael Crocker's 18. 

Senior Titus Boswell shot 2-under 70 on Tuesday with five birdies, playing his opening 11 holes bogey free. Ultimately, Boswell finished tied for 15th overall at 219 (76-73-70) for the week, concluding the tournament with his 100th career collegiate round. 

Freshman Tommy Klinker shot 2-over 74 and Keaton Parmley shot 3-over 75. Freshman Nathan Springer, who led the team after 36 holes, posted a final round, 5-over 77 to finish tied for 27th overall at 221 (73-71-77).

Host Kennesaw State won the tournament at 863 and UT Martin was second at 871. Georgia State's Cameron Jackson collected medalist honors at 5-under 211, clearing Crocker by a single shot for the tournament win. 

The Jaguars will close out the fall on Oct. 19-20 when they compete at the Xavier Invitational at Maketewah Country Club.
