This 54-hole event was held at the Cedar Rapids Country Club. This Par 72 course is a total of 7,112 yards. Ball State won the event with a score of 279 + 281 + 291 = 853 (-11) on the day.



COACH'S COMMENT
 
"The team fought hard today." Said Head Coach Gip Hoagland. "The course was tough but we just were just a little unfortunate on the greens. We have ourselves a lot of good looks but today we just didn't convert. They played hard down the stretch and made some birdies. Overall, I'm taking the hole trip as a win. Last year we came out and didn't play well at all. This year, we finished in the middle of the pack and were very close to a top 6 finish. Golfweek did a great job running the event and everything was first class."
