Men’s golf placed ninth at the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate to wrap up its fall season.

Las Cruces, N.M. - The Western Illinois Men's Golf team concluded its fall season after participating in the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate, hosted by New Mexico State. WIU competed in an 11-team tournament and placed ninth with an overall score of +72 over par. Full results can be found here.
 
"We seemed to figure out the greens a little bit better in round three but had a couple of poor finishing holes," said WIU Director of Golf Lia Biehl Lukkarinen. "It's been a good season full of challenging courses and we are looking forward to taking a quick break and getting in the gym and in TrackMan during the off season."
 
Wyatt Spier led the Leathernecks with an overall score of +13 over par to place t-38. The veteran had his best round score come in round one and three, finishing +4 over par. Spier started round three on a rough note, but finished strong by scoring four birdies in the final five holes of the back nine. Spier also had the top moment of the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate for Western when he shot an eagle on the 15 hole in round two.
 
Host New Mexico State took first place with an overall score of +7 over par.
