Wolves finish third in PRCC Wildcat Invitational

PASS CHRISTIAN, Mississippi – The Co-Lin Wolves finished third in the PRCC Wildcat Invitational held at The Oaks Golf Club in Pass Christian. Mississippi Gulf Coast took the top spot with at 575. Meridian shot a second round 298 to finish at 610. The Wolves went into the day in second place but faltered with a 322 for a two-day total 631.

"We plunged to third place today," said Co-Lin head golf coach Allen Kent. "It started raining and as a team, we didn't handle it well. We have some guys that need to be more mentally tough. They let a bad hole get to them and it just snowballed. Alex (Navarro) played well again today and Reese (McLaurin) was consistent both days."

Individually for Co-Lin. Navarro (Valencia, Spain) and Navid Mousavi (Castellon, Spain) finished tied for fifth place at 148 earning them a spot on the All-Tournament team.  Teammates McLaurin (Laurel) finished at 162 (81-81) followed by Chandler Byrd (Wesson) at 174 (85-89), and Myles Walters (Laurel) 176 (84-92).

Other team scores included East Mississippi 639, Jones College 644, Itawamba 651, Northeast Mississippi 658, Pearl River 662, Hinds 673, East Central 675, and Southwest 774.
