Evan Beery carded scores of 78 on both days to place 48th with a 156 (+14), and carded the Panther’s only eagle of the round with a chip-in on the par-4 sixth hole. Evan Schumacher rounded out the scoring with a 167 (+25).
Youngstown State won the even with a two-day total of 578 (+10) while Chicago State’s Camron Jones carded a 140 (-2) to take medalist honors.
The Panthers will be back in action later this week when they take part in the G-MAC Championships on Friday-Saturday of this week. It will be a 54-hole tournament and will take place at the Big Blue Golf Club in Lexington, KY.
