Brock Takes Title, Ties School Record

WALLACE, North Carolina - Senior Josh Brock tied a school-record by finishing 15-under-par and winning medalist honors at the Riverlanding Intercollegiate on Saturday at the Riverlanding Golf Club. The Seahawks finish fourth overall.

Brock entered the final round with a four-stroke lead and held off a charge from NC State's Albin Choi to win the tournament by two strokes. For Brock, it was his second title of the spring and the third of his career. He won the Pinehurst Intercollegiate in a one-hole playoff.

Brock tied the UNCW record for lowest score with a three-round total of 201, matching former standout Derek Wallace's 201, 15-under, score set in 2008 at the Kauai Intercollegiate.

East Carolina won the team championship by three strokes over Liberty.

The Seahawks (289-285-282=856) entered Saturday in fourth and finished that way when they carded a final round score of 282. UNCW edged 24th-ranked NC State for fourth by three strokes.

Freshman Payne McLeod (74-72-71=217) was UNCW's only other top-20 finish, tying for 19th.

Sophomore Taylor Zimmerman (74-72-72=218) fashioned his best finish of the year with a 22nd-place showing as an individual.

The Seahawks visit Georgia Tech next weekend for the Georgia Tech Intrercollegiate.
