UConn led the way with 59 combined birdies to Troy’s 57, but Troy broke away from the Huskies with 183 pars compared to UConn’s 152. 

Several Trojans stood out at the tournament as four of Troy’s own finished in the top-10 overall.

Brantley Scott finished with 15 birdies, which was good for second place individually. 

Behind Scott, Jason Quinlan finished with 14 birdies while Jake Springer tallied 12.

Troy shot 287-276-277—840 throughout the tournament.
