INDEPENDENCE, Minn. – The first tournament of the year for the Charlotte 49ers men's golf team came to a close on Monday afternoon with an 8th place finish at the Gopher Invitational. Matty Lamb recorded the best round of the day with a two-under 69 while Conor Purcell posted the best individual finish coming home ninth.
"Overall, not a bad week here in Minnesota," began Head Coach Ryan Cabbage. "Conor had a nice top-10 and Matty finished in the top-15 with two good rounds after a slow start. We would have liked to finish better in terms of a team position, but I think all of the guys have positives they can take away from this week and things that we can continue to build on.
