CHARLESTON, S.C. — Owen Stamper finished the Daniel Island Intercollegiate in second place after his second straight under-par round in Tuesday's third round. The Scottsville, Ky., native carded a 217 (+1) for the tournament as Middle Tennessee tied for sixth at 894 (+30).
MTSU recorded its lowest team score of the tournament with a 293 (+5) Tuesday.
Stamper notched four birdies Tuesday to finish with 11 for the tournament. He was one of just two players in the 104-man field with multiple rounds under par.
Kevin Jegers added four birdies of his own, carding a 74 (+2) in the third round to finish in a tie for 12th at 222 (+6). He also finished with 11 birdies.
Michael Barnard recorded his best round of the event, taking three strokes off his second-round score for a 73 (+1) in the third round. He picked up three birdies of his own Tuesday.
Gavin Clements and Tate Heintzelman rounded out the MTSU lineup in a tie for 65th at 234 (+18). Clements had his best round of the event Tuesday at 75 (+3).
Playing as an individual, Carter Maneth also tied for 65th at 234 (+18).
By the Numbers
11 – Stamper and Jegers' 11 birdies each tied for the third-most in the tournament.
67 – Stamper and Jegers accounted for 67 percent of MTSU's birdies.
3 – Stamper finished three strokes off the individual lead.
Head coach Mark McEntire on the finish to the tournament
"It was a great week for Owen Stamper to cap off an exceptional fall. On the team front this week, I was disappointed with the big numbers and lack of discipline in the first two rounds. Losing to some power five schools by two shots is going to hurt us in the rankings. I hope that our players will use this as motivation in the off-season to get better and come out in the spring ready to go."
