Final Results
FORT WAYNE, Ind. – The Bowling Green State University men's golf team concluded its 2021 spring season on Saturday (May 1) at the 2021 MAC Championships. The Falcons finished ahead of both Toledo and Ohio, placing sixth at the conference championships. The event was staged in Fort Wayne at Sycamore Hills Golf Club.
BGSU had a number of highlights over the three-round tournament. Bowling Green's round-two team score of 308 was the third-lowest score of the round. Additionally, senior Nick Hofland capped off a strong season. Hofland was the co-leader heading into the final round of play after firing a pair of 75's on Friday (April 30). Ian Mackenzie-Olson was T-9 heading into play today, and posted BG's lowest round on the afternoon with a 78.
Dylan Fitchet and Tom North contributed to Bowling Green's strong round two, as the pair of Falcons posted scores of 76 and 78, respectively. Brandon Rattray notched his lowest round of the event in round three, improving on his round-two total by eight strokes.
In a season unlike any other, Bowling Green represented itself well and was able to participate in six tournaments across six different states. The Falcons were able to travel safely as a team and compete in tournaments in Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Indiana and Ohio.
COACH POWERS QUOTE
"We got off to a good start today, but ultimately ran out of steam down the stretch. The guys battled very hard. It was just one of those tournaments where the margins were razor thin between being on the podium and finishing middle of the pack. This was an excellent experience for us and we have shown so much growth throughout this season. Nick had a great final season as a Falcon and I'm really proud of the performance he put together to finish his career -- solidifying his spot as one of the top players in the conference. We are going to miss him. For the rest of the squad, the future looks very bright as we return nine players from this team for next season."
