KENNEBUNKPORT, Maine -- The University of New England men's golf team had all four of its scoring rounds in the 70's on Monday (Oct. 1), en route to a third-place showing at the UNE Invitational. Big Blue posted a score of 309 under very windy conditions at Cape Arundel Golf Club -- eight strokes back of the event winners, the University of Southern Maine.
The Huskies were led by an impressive 3-under-par 66 from medalist Josh Hogan on the way to a 301 total. Endicott College needed its last individual round of the afternoon from third-place finisher Austin Teal (74) to pass UNE for second as a team (308).
The University of Maine Farmington (332), Maine Maritime Academy (342), and Saint Joseph's College (352) rounded out the six-team field. Kevin Richardson of the Monks closed as the individual runner-up with a 1-over-par 72.
