The Eagles travel to the Palmetto Invitational March 7-8.
Final results
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Steven Fisk shot an even-par 70 in the third round, but the Georgia Southern men's golf team finished the day with a 288 and fell three spots into a tie for 10th Sunday at the SunTrust Gator Invitational at Mark Bostick Golf Course.
South Florida (-22) fired a 13-under-par 267 to jump over tournament host Florida (-14) and take the team title. Georgia Southern (+19) tied with Central Florida, a stroke behind Missouri (+18) and two strokes behind eighth-place College of Charleston (+16).
Fisk (E) tied for 19th, his fifth top-20 finish this season, while Jake Storey (+3) shot a 71 to tie for 30th. Henry Mabbett carded a 73, Andrew Klasing posted a 74 and Jonas Vaisanen rounded out the group with a 77.
The story
The Eagles teed off on hole 10 and struggled through their first nine, with the counters combining to shoot 8-over-par. Fisk got rolling on the front nine with birdies on holes 2, 7 and 8 to play it 3-under and finish even for the day and for the tournament. Storey scored par or better on 13 holes through the middle of his round with birdies on holes 16, 17 and 6. Mabbett had just three blemishes on his card and parred 15 holes, including his final eight.
Quotables from Coach Carter Collins
"It was a disappointing finish to an overall solid week. Coming into today, we were on the front side of a leaderboard logjam. Unfortunately, we didn't play well enough to hold our position and fell on the backside of that logjam. I'm proud of the younger players for playing consistently solid this week, but we have to improve our bottom scores if we want to compete at a high level. We're looking forward to getting back to work when we get home and then competing at the Palmetto Intercollegiate in a couple of weeks."
Next up
The Eagles travel to the Palmetto Invitational March 7-8 before hosting the Schenkel Invitational at Forest Heights Country Club March 18-20.
