WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - No. 12 Piedmont men's golf continued its climb up the leadeboard, claiming a solo sixth place finish as the Sam Snead Collegiate concluded with the final round Tuesday afternoon in Williamsburg, Virginia.

After moving up six spots in the second round Monday, the Lions solidified yet another top 10 finish with a 5-over par team score, its best of the three round event.

Doug Gugel carded his second consecutive par-or-better round, this time bettering his second round score by one, with a 1-under 70. Gugel made four birdies and nothing worse than bogey on his card to work his way into a tie for 10th place finish individually.


 

Senior Adam Rogers was steady as usual, moving into the top 30 on the individual leaderboard after a 1-over 72 that included three birdies.

Freshman Andrew Dunn fired a rock solid 2-over 73, improving his score across each of the three rounds.

Fellow newcomer Bradley Knowles delivered the team's final counting score, making a team-high five birdies on his way to a 3-over 74.

Braden Kiley was just one worse, with a non-counting 4-over 75.

Competing as an individual, senior Remo Scholl was only bested by Gugel on the day, posting a season-best round of even par 71 with three birdies and nothing worse than bogey.



 



With the regular season now in the books, the Lions will set their sights on a third consecutive CCS Conference Championship, which is set to begin Monday, April 27 in Dalton, Georgia.
