KIAWAH ISLANDS, S.C. – The Akron Zips men's golf team completed the second round of The Invitational at The Ocean Course ranked seventh overall (602, +26), but due to the approach of Hurricane Florence, The Invitational at The Ocean Course was shortened to 36 holes.

The team title was decided in a playoff between host College of Charleston and SMU. All five starters from each team played the par-3, 17th hole with the best four scores determining the total to declare the winner. Charleston won the playoff and earned the team title, while SMU's Ollie Osborne earned individual medalist honors with a 3-under par 141 tournament total.

Junior Mitchell McFarland (Wheelersburg, Ohio) led Akron's scoring efforts. McFarland finished the 36-hole event with a 149 (+5). He opened the tournament with a 71 (-1) and followed with a 78 (+7) ledger. For the tournament, McFarland recorded 21 par scores and five birdies.

Senior Elliott Grayson (Shelby, N.C.) recorded 23 pars and four birdies en route to a 151 (+7) performance. Grayson posted rounds of 71 (-1) and 78 (+7).

Sophomore Fabian Sunden (Sweden) followed in team scoring with a 152 (+8) total on rounds of 72 (E) and 80 (+8). He collected 23 pars and five birdies.

Rounding out the Zips scoring were redshirt freshman Beau Bayerl (Ashland, Ohio) and freshman Ignacio Puente (Seville, Spain) with 153 (+9) and 157 (+13) scores, respectively.

Akron is scheduled to be back in action on Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 24-25 at the Bearcat Invitational hosted by Cincinnati.
