Bulldogs Finish Strong In Augusta
April 07, 2024 | Men's Golf
AUGUSTA, Ga. – The No. 26 Mississippi State men's golf team rebounded for the final round of Augusta Haskins Award Invitational with its best round of the tournament on Sunday, shooting a combined 4-under 284. That allowed MSU to jump two spots into a tie for 10th and continue its run of top-10 finishes in every tournament of the season.Â
Four of MSU's six competing golfers finished under par, and Hunter Logan had the strongest contribution to the Bulldogs' team score, shooting a 3-under 69. Logan's performance marked the second consecutive round in which he carded six birdies and his 15th par or better round this season, a total that is tied for the team lead. The graduate student has carded at least one round in the 60s in eight of nine tournaments this season. Overall, Logan was MSU's highest finisher, shooting even par over three rounds to tie for 22nd.Â
State's best performance of the day, however, came from Harrison Davis, who was competing individually. Davis shot a 5-under 67, including a bogey-free front nine to card the second-best round in the field. That score also marks the third-lowest round of Davis' career, behind two 6-under 66 performances, most recently at the Kapolei Invitational earlier this year. Davis was the highest climber in the field on the final day, rising 18 spots to finish tied for 30th.Â
Garrett Endicott and Alejandro Pedryc joined Logan and Wilson in shooting under par as both carded 1-under 71s to close the tournament. Endicott shot five birdies and landed in a tie for 52nd, while Pedryc notched four of his own and ended tied with Drew Wilson for 56th. Josep Serra was MSU's third-highest individual finisher, tying for 36th.Â
"[That was] not the week we wanted," head coach Dusty Smith said. "We need to own it and move forward. We are excited to prepare for our home event next week. It's a very special event to our program. Getting to play our home golf course in front of our fans is always something we look forward to."Â
Mississippi State will conclude the regular season hosting the Mossy Oak Collegiate on April 15-16.Â
