NKU head coach Daryl Landrum was able to bring along a group of men’s players to participate in the event on an individual basis as well, and the Norse made a strong showing led by Ryan Hines, who finished seventh at eight-over-par (77-75—152). Cody Moore (78-77—155) was just three strokes back in ninth place.
