Louisville's Justin Dorward was third overall with 68-72=140, while the Cardinals failed to place another golfer in the top 20.
Chris Malec was tied for 25th by carding 74-73=147 and Daniel Iceman was tied for 33rd with his 77-72. Henry Tomlinson carded a 37th-place finish by shooting 76-74=150, while Nick Umholtz was tied for 41st after firing 74-77=151.

"It was more difficult out there today, but there were some teams that handled it pretty well," said U of L head coach Mark Crabtree. "Individually, I was very impressed by our senior Justin Dorward, who was third overall. We didn't play well yesterday, which put us in a difficult position. We were closer to where we needed to be today, but we dug ourselves a hole with our play on Monday."
The Cardinals travel to the Jerry Pate Invitational on Oct. 3-4 in Birmingham, Ala.
