Knowles and Smith recorded top 10 finishes; Beaudoin finished tied for 12th, Laroche finished tied for 14th, and Fletcher finished tied for 20th place. 

Laroche and Beaudoin will go from the course to the rink and will on the ice tonight for the Mustangs Men's Ice Hockey season opener. 

Coach McKinnon shared, "Cam Knowles and Wyatt Smith broke into the top 10 once again to help the team total. I spoke to both after the round, and both left a few shots out on the course today. Beaudoin, Laroche, and Fletcher all agreed and understand that they will use this experience as a reference for next year. For a team that has not competed in 10 years, finishing in third place at the Conference Championship is a monumental achievement. Our players bought in to the Mustang way and improved in each of the events. I am proud of all our accomplishments this year and to even compete with schools that have had established programs for years is significant. We have a great core group of returning players and I am already excited about next season.The Mustangs will be working hard in the off-season and preparing for the 2023 campaign using the tournament experience they gained this year. It has been a pleasure to coach this great group of student athletes."
