EATONTON - Craig Gibson fired a 5-under 65 on Tuesday morning to help the 5th-ranked Georgia Southwestern men's golf team climb three slots and finish 11th at the 17-team Bobcat Intercollegiate hosted by Georgia College. Christopher Hall led the Hurricanes with a two-day, three-round total of 2-over 212 at the par-70, 6,847-yard Golf Club at Cuscowilla.

Hall shot rounds of 69, 70 and 73 to pace the Hurricanes. He tied for 16th in the 90-player field. Gibson's final-round 65 tied for the tournament's low round. His overall 216 score tied for 31st.

GSW finished 32 strokes behind 3rd-ranked Barry University for the top spot in the team standings.

Lynn University's Daniel Young charged from three strokes back to win the individual title after his 2-under 68 on Tuesday and 8-under 202 total.
