uva golfThe Virginia men’s golf team got its spring break swing through the state of South Carolina off to a successful start by finishing second in the 15-team Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate in Aiken, S.C. The Cavaliers matched tournament-winner South Carolina with the best third-round score to secure their runner-up position.

UVA and the Gamecocks both shot 5-under 275 during Tuesday’s single round of competition. South Carolina won with a score of 8-under 832 while UVA was second at 2-over 842. VCU was 10 shots behind the Cavaliers in third place.

Virginia was led by fourth-place finishes from senior Sam Young and sophomore George Duangmanee. Both players finished the 54-hole event at even par 210. Jung posted a final round score of 68 while Duangmanee had the team’s best effort, shooting 3-under 67 on the par-70 Palmetto Golf Club course.

Jung’s tourney score, place finish and final 18-hole result were all career bests. Duangmanee’s finish marked his fourth top-10 outing as a Cavalier and equaled his best-ever tournament showing.

UVA junior Pietro Bovari placed 10th overall thanks to a final-round effort of 69. He shot 212 while senior Jimmie Massie was 17th overall at 214. Chris Fosdick matched Massie’s final round score of 1-over 71 to move up to 27th place.

Virginia heads to Myrtle Beach next for the General Hackler Championship that takes place March 13 and 14 at the Dunes Club.
