"I was really proud of our guys this week," UJ head coach Zach Hale said. "Shooting three rounds under 300 as a team is something the program hasn't done in a while. It was nice to see Adam put together three great days as this is his home course. Jackson continues to be consistently solid for us and it was nice to see Gehrig and Logan step up too. We're looking forward to closing out the fall season on a good note."

The Jimmies finish the fall season at the University of Sioux Falls Invite in Larchwood, Iowa, next Monday and Tuesday.
