The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga men’s golf team now has won the Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate tournament at Aiken, S.C., both times it’s participated.
The Mocs repeated their 2008 win Tuesday. Shooting a final-round 293, UTC finished at 855 with 19th-ranked Clemson second at 862 out of 18 teams.
Stephan Jaeger tied for fourth individually at 210, and UTC teammates Derek Rende and Steven Fox finished eighth at 212 and tied for 10th at 214, respectively. Fredrik Qvicker tied for 19th at 219.
“Going into the event, I felt our chemistry was really coming together,” Mocs coach Mark Guhne said in a UTC release. “It was a great team win. We need to build on this result and continue to get better.”
The Lady Mocs finished eighth, meanwhile, in the JMU/Eagle Landing Invitational at Jacksonville, Fla., but Emma de Groot was the individual runner-up at 217 and Maria Juliana Loza tied for seventh at 224. Moa Duf tied for 50th at 234.
