Aces tie for 8th in the final standings

 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Leading the University of Evansville men’s golf team in the final day of the Butler Spring Invitational was Isaac Rohleder, who recorded an even round of 70 to lead the Purple Aces.

Rohleder got off to a strong start, finishing the front nine holes at 1-under.  He completed the day with a 70 to improve to a tie for 8th in the final individual standings with a 2-round tally of 142.  Dallas Koth and Caleb Wassmer tied for 34th on the final leaderboard with totals of 148.  Koth recorded a 77 on Tuesday while Wassmer carded a 78.

Henry Kiel and Carson Parker both made a large jump in the final round.  After scoring an 80 on Monday, Kiel scored a 74 and finished with a total of 154 strokes.  Parker made a 10-stroke jump, dropping his score from an 85 to a 75.  He finished with a 160.  Nicholas Gushrowski improved on the individual side, going from an 81 to a 77 to score a 157.

Valparaiso took the team title with a 569, defeating Butler by six strokes.  The Beacons finished at 10-over on Tuesday, but their commanding lead following the opening round was enough to clinch the victory.  Evansville and Green Bay tied for the 8th position.  Both had scores of 589.  Following a scorecard playoff to break a 3-way tie for the individual medalist, it was James Hill of Detroit Mercy earning the win.
