Today’s action was held at the 6,837-yard, par-72

The Eagles shot a team total of 298 on Friday, their third
consecutive sub-300 round, and ended with a 72-hole showing of 1217
(327-295-297-298). Also tying for 15th position

Emory sophomore Ryan Dagerman turned in his second
straight even-par 72 in the final round and finished the tournament
with a seven-over par 294 (77-73-72-72) , good for a tie for
12th place out of 120 players. After shooting a 77 in
tough conditions on the Hershey Country Club East Course on
Tuesday, Dagerman regrouped and shot one-over par in the last 54
holes of the Championship. Dagerman’s 12th-place finish
