South runs away with Spring Eagle Classic
Mount Mercy golfer Jack South turned the Hunters Ridge Golf Course into his personal playpen Monday in the final round of the Spring Eagle Classic.
South, a senior from Birmingham, England, fired a 3-under-par 69 and captured the two-day tournament with a 5-under total of 139. He won the title by seven shots over Josh Bousman of Ashford University.
Mount Mercy golfers dominated the event with four spots in the top-7, but the Mustangs competed as individuals and were not counted in the team standings. Ashford won the title at 606. Mount Mercy would have won the tournament by 13 strokes with a 593.
Carson Whittington of Kirkwood, Jacob Selander of Mount Mercy and Ben Franklin of Mount Mercy tied for fourth place at 7-over 151. Colton Clemmer of Mount Mercy tied for seventh at 152.
