CHATTANOOGA Tenn.---A rainy final round ended sour for the 18th-ranked Chattanooga men’s golf team as it shot 307 on the final 18 to shoot seven-over par 871 at Council Fire Golf Club on Tuesday.  Co-host Middle Tennessee found the conditions more to its liking shooting 10-under par 278 to come back from a nine-stroke deficit to claim a three-shot win.
The Blue Raiders shot 13-under par 851 after opening with rounds of 287 and 286 on Monday. 
Wichita State claimed second place at 854 (-10), while Southern Miss (862), Furman (863) and Missouri (868) rounded out the top five.
A trio of golfers shared medalist honors.  MT’s Kent Bulle and Hunter Green were joined by the Shockers’ Dustin Garza at six-under par 210. 
Southern Miss’ Wes Carter and Charlotte’s Corey Nagy tied for fourth at 211 (-5). Iowa State’s Ben Herrera shot the round of the day with a five-under par 67.
Fredrik Qvicker led the Mocs tying for 13th at 214 (-2).  He shot Chattanooga’s low final round with a 75.  Stephan Jaeger joined him in the top 20 ending up tied for 17th at 216 (E).  Derek Rende tied for 21st at 217 (+1) followed by Steven Fox (227) tied for 52nd and J.T. Clendenin
(228) tied for 56th.
The Blue Raiders’ round of 278 was fueled by four sub-par rounds. 
In addition to Bulle with a 70 and Green at 71, Craig Smith led
the way with a 68, while Jason Millard chipped in a 69.
The Mocs return to action next week at the Hummingbird Intercollegiate
