Men's Golf Finishes Sixth at GLIAC Championships

Sean Niles tied-for-ninth with a 147.

AUGUSTA, Mich. -- The Wayne State University men's golf team wrapped up play at the GLIAC Championships on Saturday afternoon. The Warriors placed sixth place out of 10 teams with a 595 (299, 296). The top four teams advanced to medal match play. The event was played at Stoatin Brae Golf Course (Par 71, 6,742 Yards).

LEADING THE WAY
Sean Niles (Northville, Mich. / Detroit Catholic Central) paced the Green & Gold with a 147 (77, 70). Davenport's Bradley Mogire won medalist honors by shooting a 138 (71, 67). The Panthers earned the top-seed after finishing first in stroke play by shooting a 562 (281, 281).

TEAM RESULTS
Behind DU was Grand Valley State (583), Ferris State (584), Northwood (593) and Saginaw Valley State (594). WSU finished ahead of Purdue Northwest (603), Parkside (614), Northern Michigan (619) and Lake Superior State (621).

WSU RESULTS
Tyler Hurtubise (Essex, Ont.) tied-for-13th with a 148 (72, 76), while Josh DiCarlo (Amherstburg, Ont.) posted a 149 (73, 76) to tie-for-15th.

Garret Day (Chatham, Ont.) turned in a 153 (79, 74) and Mat Hawryluk (Chatham, Ont.) had a 158 (77, 81).

COACH HORN'S THOUGHTS
"After battling horrific conditions again, 35 mile per hour winds and bitter cold wind chills in the low to mid 30s the Warriors came up two shots short. Overall, it was a very poor team performance. We are hoping to be able to participate in the NCAA Tournament if we get an at-large bid. We certainly got good scores on Friday from Josh DiCarlo and Tyler Hurtubise and an outstanding round today by Sean Niles. We have an immense amount of work to do on the putting green. In and around the putting green is our demise right now."

UP NEXT
WSU will wait to see if it receives an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Warriors were sixth in the lastest regional rankings.
