COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Toledo men's golf team carded a four-over par 288 on Saturday to register a seventh-place finish at Ohio State's Robert Kepler Intercollegiate. Senior Duncan McNeill tied for fifth place at one-over par 143 (70-73) to lead the Rockets on OSU's par-71, 7,455-yard Scarlet Course.

"The team continues to show signs of what they're capable of which is a positive step at this point in the season," Head Coach Jeff Roope said. "Hopefully that growth mindset will continue into the MAC's and beyond. I know they are looking forward to their trip to Aurora."

Freshman Muhammed Afif Mohd Fathi topped Toledo in today's action with a one-under par 70 to finish tied for 43rd place in the individual standings at 10-over par 152 (82-70). That total was just one stroke behind freshman David Amm (78-73) and sophomore Grant Godfrey (79-72), who tied for 37th place at nine-over par 151.

Sophomore Dylan Van Fossen rounded out the Rocket lineup by tying for 62nd place at 14-over 156 (79-77).

Junior Rasmus Broholt Lind enjoyed a strong tournament competing as an individual, tying for 11th place at three-over par 145. He carded a one-under par 70 today to join Mohd Fathi in posting the Rockets' best round of the day.

Tournament host Ohio State captured the tournament title at five-over par 573, four strokes in front of runner-up Michigan State. The Buckeyes' Daniel Wetterich earned medalist honors by shooting a seven-under 64 today to finish with a nine-under par 133, six strokes in front of his nearest competitor.

Toledo will travel to Aurora, Ohio next weekend for the Mid-American Conference Championships. The action begins Friday with 36 holes at Club Walden followed by 18 holes on Saturday and Sunday.
