"It was a tough day to play with winds blowing 15-20 mph over the final 12 holes," Eastern Florida State College men's golf coach Jamie Howell said. "We just need to save a few more shots. I was encouraged by the end of the round today as everyone hung in there."
Freshman Adam Vermut shot a 2-over 74 in the final round to win the individual title with a 2-under 142 for the tournament. It was his first individual win of the spring season.
Jefferson State's Trey Rouse and Mississippi Gulf Coast's Alessio Graziani tied for second place one stroke behind Vermut.
