Vols Wrap Up Fall With Fourth Place Finish at Golf Club of Georgia Collegiate


ALPHARETTA, Ga. – The seventh-ranked Tennessee men’s golf team capped off its successful fall season Sunday, finishing in fourth place as a team at the Golf Club of Georgia Collegiate.
 
The Vols shot 14-under as a team for the weekend at the event, finishing ahead of three top-15 teams.
 
The event caps off a fall in which Tennessee captured two tournament titles, had two individuals win tournament titles, achieved a top-10 ranking as a team and compiled a 49-9 win-loss record over the course of four fall events.
 
Freshman Caleb Surratt led the way for the Vols, finishing tied for fifth place—his second top-five finish in his first four collegiate tournaments.
 
Surratt carded two out of three rounds under par, finishing 8-under overall. Surratt, the winner of the Maui Jim Intercollegiate earlier this fall, is set to enter his first spring as a Vol with a team-leading 69.08 stroke average.
 
Redshirt freshman Lance Simpson was Tennessee’s second-highest finisher, carding a three-round total of 1-over. Simpson tied for 32nd place.
 
One stroke behind Simpson was Bryce Lewis, who tied for 36th place at 2-over.
 
Tennessee’s second-best round three score came from Jake Hall, who rebounded from a 8-over round on Saturday to shoot 4-under on Sunday. Hall finished 3-over in total for the weekend with two counting rounds, finishing tied for 41st place.
 
Evan Woosley-Reed, making his collegiate debut, tied with Hall in 41st place at 3-over. Woosley-Reed contributed a counting round on each of the three days for the Vols.
 
Following its four-tournament fall, Tennessee now heads into an over three-month hiatus as a team before teeing off the spring at the Puerto Rico Classic in San Juan, Puerto Rico, from Feb. 12-14.
