Top-Ranked Mocs Finish 11th at Ping/Golfweek Preview
TOLEDO, Ohio---The No. 1 Chattanooga Mocs picked the wrong time for an off week finishing 11th at the Ping/Golfweek Preview at the Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio. The Preview is played at the host club of the spring’s NCAA Finals.
The Mocs shot a final round 294 (+10), their best round of the tournament. That put the three-day total at 893 (+41).
