WCU finishes 6th in Cuthbert Cup

Kiawah Island, S.C. – Inclement weather which moved across the Eastern seaboard and prompted tournament officials to change the start on Tuesday forced the cancellation of the third round of the Cuthbert Cup, leaving second-round leaders as the event champions. Host College of Charleston claimed the women’s team championship while UNC Wilmington was declared the men’s champion.

Western Carolina, which slipped from leading in the first round on the men’s side and standing in second on the women’s, finished sixth in both tournaments to open the spring portion of the schedule.

The Catamount men ranked second in both par 3 and par 5 scoring for the tournament, shooting 4-over on the shortest holes and 8-under on the longest. WCU was also third in birdies with a combined 34.
