Orlando, Fla. - Tulsa senior Brett Myers captured medalist honors at the Rio Pinar Intercollegiate on Tuesday. Myers shot a final round 72 and finished with a three-stroke victory with an eight-under par score of 208. As a team, the Hurricane placed second overall, finishing one stroke behind first-place Tennessee-Chattanooga.
Tulsa carded a final round 291 and finished with an 863 score, while Chattanooga had a final round 287 for an 862 three-round total. Mississippi (872), Louisville (876) and UT-Arlington (879) rounded out the top-five teams.

Myers finished three shots better than second-place finisher Bryce Ledford of Chattanooga.
Korbe was Tulsa's next top finisher today as he carded a final round 72 for a 54-hole total of 216 to finish in fifth-place. Cohlmia placed 15th overall with a 219 score after today's round of 72, while fellow senior Ryan Henry was two places back in 17th place with a 220 total.
Geyger finished in 41st place with a 223 score.
