JACKSON- Millsaps Majors' golf Coach Eddie Brescher rolled in a par put on the 18th hole to shoot a final round even-par 70 to win the The Gulf States PGA Trustmark Invitational by four strokes over a trio of golfers.
Brescher battled through long rough and a Laurel Country Club course that gave golfers fits. Breschers' one-under 69 in the second round was the lone score under par in any of the three days of play.
The win caps off an impressive summer for Brescher. The win is the third of the summer for coach. Eddie won the Greenville Invitational shooting eight-under over the two-day event and the Beauchene Four-Ball with three rounds of 65. Coach also finished second in the State Amateur Championships and fifth at the highly regarded Magnolia Amateur. The accolades have Brescher now second in the race for Mississippi Amateur Golfer of the Year.
Brescher has the Majors' Men's team up to #37 in the nation, earning the Majors a trip to the Golfweek Fall Invitational in October.
