After shooting a combined team score of 2-under-par in Tuesday’s final round, the UNC men’s golf ended up taking home a fourth place finish at the Lamkin San Diego Classic.

Led by Austin Hitt–who finished fourth in the individual portion of the tournament with a score of 3-under-par–the Tar Heels were able to finish close behind the top three finishers in the event.

At the top of the leaderboard was No. 5 Arizona State (-10), No. 8 Texas (-8) and Saint Mary’s (-4).

UNC was 11 strokes ahead of fifth-place San Diego State.

“We’ve seen the elite teams in the country in the last two tournaments and we’ve been within a handful of shots,” UNC head coach Andrew DiBitetto said afterwards. “The exciting part is that we have not played our best golf yet. We have areas where we can improve.”
