Cameron Carrico, a candidate for Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year, earned the medalist honor with scores of 73-69=142 for a four-shot win over Morehead State's Alex Misback. The win is Carrico's second this spring.
MSU's Patrick Newcomb and Hunter Ford shared 11th place in the field of 67 players. Newcomb had scores of 78-72=150, while Ford's rounds were 74-76=150. Dustin Gosser placed 29th with scores of 75-79=154 and Hunter York finished 42nd place with rounds of 77-80=157.
The tournament was played over two days of windy spring weather and made for difficult scoring conditions.
“Both days were as tough in conditions as I can remember,” said MSU Head Coach Eddie Hunt, whose team recorded its third win in 2010-11. “Cameron had a great tournament and he's having a great senior season. He has embraced being the leader of this team. He's got goals for this season and he is focused on reaching them.”
“Coming from behind like this and winning a tournament can only help our confidence as we come down the stretch of our season.”
Tyler Brown of MSU played the event as an individual and placed 49th with scores of 77-82=159.
After the Racers in first place and Morehead State in second, the rest of the final finishers included: UT Martin and Tennessee State sharing third place at 601, while Tennessee Tech (605) placed fourth. John A. Logan (606) placed sixth, with Lincoln Memorial (607), Lipscomb (613), Trevecca Nazarene (620), Valparaiso (620), Savannah State (635) and Alabama State (639) rounding out the field.
The Tennessee State hosted event played on a King's Creek course that was a par-72 at 6,807 yards.
The Racers have one more event before the OVC Tournament with a trip to Jonesboro, Ark., April 11 for the ASU Red Wolves Classic.
The Murray State men's golf team erased a five-shot deficit in the final round and won the Big Blue Intercollegiate for the second straight season with a final round 296 at King's Creek GC in Spring Hill, Tenn.
Trailing leader and host Tennessee State by five shots and second place UT Martin by four, the Racers blitzed the field of 12 teams on the second day of difficult weather conditions. MSU's 296 coupled with their 299 Monday gave them a 36-hole total of 595 and a five shot win over second place Morehead State who finished at 600.
