The Eagles finished in sixth place out of seven CCS programs, shooting their best round of the week on the final day at +30 to finish at +99 overall. Piedmont University took first place through a play-off hole against Huntingdon College, after tying at 27-over on the week after the final day.

Asbury senior business administration major Garrett Sturges, finished 21st overall with 81 (+9), 81 (+9) and 77 (+5) rounds to finish 23-over on the week. He had seven birdies and 24 pars in his final 54 holes as an Asbury Eagle. Sturges put together a decorated career during his time at AU.

"This past season we faced a lot of adversity but the guys responded in such a resilient way. We showed toughness and proved why belong in a conference like the CCS. On day two I just went into attack mode, tried to stay in the moment and was able to play some good golf. I couldn't be more excited for this next fall season."
