Senior walk-on claims individual Sun Belt title, Coastal Carolina aims for NCAA berth | Myrtle Beach Sun News

Over his first three years at Coastal Carolina, Morgan Deneen was a business student in the school’s PGA Golf Management program, longing to be on the men’s golf team.

This year, as a senior who was finally given a chance to walk onto the team by first-year coach Jim Garren, he’s a conference champion.

Deneen followed up his record-breaking 63 on Monday with a 4-under 67 on Tuesday to run away with the Sun Belt Conference’s individual title, winning by seven shots with a 10-under 203 at the par-71, 6,887-yard Raven Golf Club at Sandestin Resort in Florida.
