WINCHESTER – The Roanoke College golf team finished sixth in the rain shortened Virginia State Intercollegiate on Monday, October 14th.
The competition was supposed to be a two-day, 36 hole event, but due to the weather on Sunday, the tournament was shortened to one round. Hampden-Sydney won the event with a team score of 287 (-1). The Tigers' Brian Burt finished the competition with 68 (-4) single round score.
Roanoke had two golfers finish in the top-20 for the day. Alex Taylor tied for ninth place, shooting 73 (+1). Andrew Butts tied for 18th place, shooting a four-over 76. William Brown followed close, tying for 26th, tallying a single-round score of 78. Jack Prater (+9) and Karlyn East (+10) finished just one stroke off each other with an 81 and 82, respectively.
