GREENEVILLE, N.C. - Sophomore Todd Shagin (Ridgewood, N.J./ Ridgewood) came back from an opening round of 76 to shoot back-to-back scores of 71. The two low rounds helped him to finish in a tie for 12th at the Pirate Fall Intercollegiate.

Freshman Alex Wenzel came in 82nd after posting a three-round 239 (74, 82, 83). Lacey's top round was the first when he shot a 74. He followed that effort up with a 77 and a 78. Horan posted a 78 and an 82 before finding his stroke and shooting a 74 on the final round.
