No. 10 Men’s Golf Claims GSW Hurricane Invitational Title

PRESS RELEASE

ALBANY, Ga. – The No. 10 University of North Georgia men’s golf team won its second straight tournament, winning the GSW Hurricane Invitational by one stroke over the host Hurricanes Tuesday.

Noah Zediker finished as the tournament runner-up after a final round of 3-under 69. His 54-hole total of 7-under ties him for third all-time in the program record book. Stephen Kinsel finished in a tie for seventh in the event at 2-under 216, while Evan Thompson was tied for 10th, one shot back of Kinsel.

North Georgia’s 7-under team total is third best all-time in program history and the win marks the second of the year and 10th overall. It’s the first time that UNG has won back-to-back tournaments in program history and just the second time that the Nighthawks have won two in a season.
Carson-Newman was the only other team under par in the event at 4-under and in third place. Columbus State and Belmont Abbey rounded out the top five.

UNG will look to make it three in a row next week at the Bearcat Classic.
