JACKS FINISH SIXTH

HARRIS, Mich. --- South Dakota State University Men's Golf placed sixth at the Island Resort Intercollegiate as Matthew Schaefer notched a top-five finish Sunday-Monday evening.

The Jackrabbits tallied a total of 24-over-par that put them in sixth on the leaderboard out of the ten teams that made the trip to Michigan for the Labor Day tournament. SDSU sat in fourth place (+8) after play concluded Sunday.

Schaefer navigated his way around Sage Run Golf Club quite well as he carded two below par rounds (-1, -2) Sunday. He did end up shooting a 75 (+3) Monday, but still claimed fifth overall and was the first Jackrabbit listed on the leaderboard. Schaefer rolled in 10 birdies for the tourney, three behind the leader.

Liam Georgiadis snuck inside the top ten as the second best Jack across the three rounds with a score of +3. Georgiadis was very steady on Sunday as he played even golf for the first two rounds before carding a 75 (+3), Monday.

Jonah Dohrer had an up and down first round although was able to card an opening 72 (E). Dohrer came back in the second round to close out Sunday with a 77 (+2). Dohrer opened his first nine holes even par on Monday before carded a +4 on the back nine for a three-round total of +6. Dohrer performance earned him a spot inside the top 20 places with a tied-for-seventeenth finish.

One of the bigger stories for the Jackrabbits was two of their players Will Frazier (+8) and Noah Boraas (+10), who were listed as independent, ended up rounding out the top five scorers for SDSU. Frazier and Boraas were T-21st and T-31st, respectively on the final leaderboard.

Up Next: SDSU will make a trip out to Madison, Wisconsin for the Badger Invitational slated for Sept. 26-28.
