"With seven holes left in the tournament, we were within two strokes of the lead," said head coach Tyler Wollberg. "We ended up taking third by one shot, but this team showed a lot of heart out there this weekend. No one expected them to do anything this weekend except for themselves and they proved to the conference and themselves, that they will be contenders for years to come. They gave everything they could out on the course, and it was a joy to watch the last three days."
RPI claimed the team title, while the Engineer's Joey Harrigan claimed the individual title with a 215.
With the conclusion of round three on Sunday, the Saints wrapped up the 2022-23 season.
