The No. 25 Virginia men's golf team dominated the field at the Gary Koch Intercollegiate in Tampa, Fla., this past weekend, finishing nine strokes ahead of runner-up Auburn.
Junior Ben Kohles led the Cavaliers with the fourth individual title of his career, posting rounds of 5-under 67, 7-under 65 and 3-over 75 during the two-day tournament. The first-place finish vaulted Kohles into a second-place tie for the most individual titles in program history. Kohles has now racked up the most individual tournament victories since Jimmy Flippen led the Cavaliers during 1992-95.
Senior Will Collins shot respectable first- and second-round scores of 1-under 71 and 2-under 70 before climbing the leaderboard Sunday with another 1-under 71 round to place second for the Cavaliers and fifth overall. Senior Amory Davis also posted a top-10 finish, while freshman Ben Rusch and sophomore Mac McLaughlin claimed 19th- and 34th-place finishes.
Virginia continues play Oct. 15-16 at The Ridges in Jonesborough, Tenn.
