HAMPTON, Ga. - The Carson-Newman Eagles fired a 3-under 285 on
day two to finish sixth at the Laker Invitational played Tuesday at
Crystal Lake Golf and Country Club in Hampton, Ga. The Eagles
carded a two-day 576 (E) to finish 14 strokes back of champion

Team champions Newberry shot a 10-under par 278 for Tuesday's
final round and finished the tournament with a 14-under 562 to win.
Newberry finished four strokes ahead of top-ranked Georgia College
and five strokes in front of second-ranked Barry. The tournament
was reduced from 54 holes to 36 holes due to the heavy rains and
flooding that blanked the metro Atlanta area on Monday evening.
Newberry was propelled by two fine tournaments from Daniel Stanley
and Ben Lown. Stanley followed up Monday's 6-under 66 with a
3-under 69 to finish second overall at 9-under 135, while Lown
wound up tied for third with 7-under 137.
Seventh-ranked Florida Southern finished fourth overall with a
2-under 574, followed closely by fourth-ranked Lynn at 1-under 575.
Rounding out the top 10 in the loaded 16-team field was C-N (576),
Queens (577), 17th-ranked Lander and UNC Pembroke (583),
seventh-ranked Columbus State, 16th-ranked Clayton State and
Georgia Southwestern (585).
Individually, Carlin followed up a 67 on Monday with a 6-under 66
on Tuesday and won individual medallist honors with an 11-under
133. He finished two strokes ahead of Stanley and four strokes
ahead of both Lown and Lynn's Patricio Salem. Georgia College's
Niclas Johansson, Carson-Newman's Brad Robinson and Queens' Ben
Lasso each finished tied for fifth at 5-under 139, while Queens'
Braeden Cryderman and Montevallo's Jon Henderson both finished tied
for eighth at 4-under 140.
