Men's Golf: Big Red place seventh at Denison Fall Classic

The Denison men's golf team closed out the 36-hole Denison Fall Classic from Granville Golf Course with a second-day total of 325 which landed them in seventh place overall with 640 strokes.

Leading the way for DU was freshman Connor Monaghan (Garden City, N.Y./The Peddie School) who followed up yesterday's 74 with a six-over par, 77.  Monaghan finished ninth overall.  Another rookie who fired a sub-80 round was Sam Kaiser (Zionsville, Ind./Brebeuf Jesuit) who rebounded from an 85 in Saturday's round with a 78.

The team championship went to Wittenberg University who ended with a 587.  Sophomore Bleu George was the medalist after rounds of 66 and 70.  On Sunday, Mercyhurst's Tyler Bidwell matched George's low round of the tournament with a 66 of his own.  Bidwell carded five birdies on the front nine to shoot a five-under, 30.  He would net two birdies on the back nine to end with an even-par 36.

DU will compete at the NCAC Fall Invitational next Saturday and Sunday (Sept. 12-13).  That tournament is scheduled to be played at Delaware Golf Club in Delaware, Ohio.
