Madison, Miss. – The 26th ranked Millsaps Majors Golf Team finished the fall season off with a bang on Tuesday afternoon as they won the Lake Caroline Invitational with a score of 607 (+31).

"I am so proud of the way our guys played today,” said first year Head Coach Eddie Brescher, who picked up his first career win. “Every single guy worked very hard for this victory by being patient and sticking to our game plan."

Freshman Lewis Peters led the way for Millsaps shooting a second round 73 (+1) to bring his score to 148 (+4) as he finished tied for third. Sophomores Drew Richardson and Thomas Baxter tied for sixth overall with scores of 152 (+8). Baxter played well in round two as he shot a 73 (+1).

Freshman Garrett Barnes finished tied for 14th with a score of 156 while sophomore Chris Patton placed 17th with a score of 157.

Though not attributed to the final score, junior Jake Sherrington played exceptionally well today, shooting a second round 74 (+2) for a final score of 155 to finish 10th overall. Freshman Daniel Finan finished 22nd while fellow newcomer Kurtis Galant finished 34th.

Brescher is very pleased with his young team, "We may be young, but these guys have the attitude and desire of experienced college golfers; every time one of them is having a rough hole, the next guy is there for support and pick up his teammate."

The Majors have now concluded their fall season and will take the winter off before returning on March 4th for the Rome-News Tribune Open in Rome, Ga.

"We ended this semester on a good note with the 'W',” added Brescher. “Now we look to improve over our winter break and be ready to make some noise in the spring."
