Western Kentucky's men's golf team fired off a 9-under par 279 on the final day of the Craft Farms Intercollegiate to climb four spots on the leaderboard and finish third as a team on Monday in Gulf Shores, Ala.

WKU redshirt sophomore Nic Hofman led the charge as he shot the lowest round of any golfer in the 75-man field on Monday with a 5-under 67.

WKU was able to count only even-par scores or better, with three Hilltoppers under par in the final round.

“What a great day for the Tops,” WKU coach Chan Metts said in a news release.
