FULL INDIVIDUAL LEADERBOARD

NOTABLE

- This was the 18th GSC Men's Golf Championship in program history for West Florida. This is the seventh straight year that the Argonauts have hoisted the trophy.

- With the final score of 840 (-24), UWF set the conference record for lowest 54-hole score by 10 strokes. The previous record of 850 (-14) by Nicholls State had stood since 1979.

- Medalist Elias Haavisto carded a 13-under par 203 (67, 65, 71). That mark ties the championship record set by West Florida's Juan Miguel Heredia back in 2016. Runner-up Alejandro Restrepo's 11-under par 205 is the sixth best performance in tournament history.

- Lee made a run at UWF in the final round, but were never able to catch the country's top team. The Flames had two players, Evan Spence and Oliver Lewis-Perkins, named to the All-Tournament Team. It was the second time in Spence's career that he has earned GSC All-Tournament honors.

- Christian Brothers finished third in the event, which is the best team finish in program history.
