CINCINNATI - The Purdue Fort Wayne men's golf team wrapped up its fall season with a seventh-place finish at the Xavier Invitational on Tuesday (Oct. 22).
The Mastodons turned in a three-round score of 306-286-294-886, putting them in the middle of the pack of five Horizon League schools at the event. IU Indy (863), Northern Kentucky (876), Oakland (890) and Detroit Mercy (894) surrounded the Mastodons' 886.
Justin Hicks finished as the Mastodons' best at Xavier's event, turning in a scorecard with a 76-70-73-219 to tie for 21st place. On Tuesday, the freshman started with a birdie on hole 10 then went to 2-under with a birdie on 14. He finished the back nine even. On the front, he had a birdie on hole five, a 394-yard par-4.
Nick Holder and AJ Agnew tied for 32nd with a pair of 222s. Holder's day was highlighted by an eagle on his second hole, the par-4 11th. He drove the green to about 12 feet and drained the putt. Later on, he had a stretch of seven holes of par or better, including a birdie on hole three, a 489-yard par-4. He finished with a 76-73-73-222 week. Angew shot 78-72-72-222. In round three, Agnew had seven pars and a birdie on the front nine for a 1-over side. He birdied the 415-yard 16th. He was 1-over on the front nine as well, getting a birdie on seven to mitigate the damage from bogeys on four and eight. He parred the rest of the side for 13 total in his round.
Brock Reschly finished one shot behind Holder and Agnew with a 76-71-76-223. On Tuesday, the sophomore had 12 pars and six bogeys, with seven of the pars coming on the back nine. He tied for 37th.
Jarred Bowser also played for the team score, finishing with a three-round total of 80-84-80-244. On Tuesday, he had a birdie on hole 12, helping him stay even through five holes. On the back nine, Bowser had five pars in a row on holes 2-6.
Xavier's two teams tied for the team title. Seth Smith of Austin Peay won the individual medalist honor.
