MARTIN, Tenn. -- Senior Lee Maxwell earned a Top 10 finish and two
Golden Eagles tied for 12th place as the Tennessee Tech men's golf
team claimed seventh place in the 14-team UT Martin Skyhawk
Classic, which wrapped up Tuesday at Paris Landing State Park.
Maxwell finished with a team-best round of 74 Tuesday to finish
with a 215 total, placing him in a tie for 10th on the individual
leaderboard among 78 golfers. Junior Greg Kitts was one stroke back
at 216 in a tie for 12th place, while freshman Adam Cunningham also
tied for 12th at 216. Cunningham's scores didn't help the Golden
Eagles, however, as he was entered in the field as an individual
competitor.
Murray State and John A. Logan College ted for first place with
scores of 861 for the 54-hole total, with the Racers breaking the
tie and winning the title on the first playoff hole. Lipscomb (863)
was in third place, followed by Union University (868), Southern
Illinois (872), and the UT Martin "B" squad (872).
The Golden Eagles placed seventh with an 874 total, closing play
Tuesday with a 297 round after shooting 284 and 293 on Monday. The
UT Martin "A" squad was next (876), followed by Tennessee State and
Alabama State (881), Murray State's "B" unit (890), Southern
Indiana (897), Jackson State (912) and Bethel (921).
Following Maxwell and Kitts for the Golden Eagles, freshman
Mitchell Thomas tied for 31st place at 220, Lee Whitehead was 44th
at 225, and Maxx Verble was 61st at 229.
Cunningham was the top finisher among nine individuals. Bryce
Kendrick was also among the individuals, finishing 70th with a 233
total.
The Golden Eagles will jump right back into action on Sunday at the
WKU/Kenny Perry Invitational at The Club at Olde Stone, Sunday
through Tuesay.
