SCOTTSBORO, Ala. - Kirkwood sophomore Jordan Azbell shot low round of the day with a 5-under par 67 that helped propel the Eagles to a fourth-place in the NJCAA Divivion men's golf tournament Friday at Goose Pond Colony.

Kirkwood was in 10th place after Thursday's third round, but was only six shots out of fourth.

The Eagles teamed up to shoot an 8-over par 296 that was the second lowest team total of the day and vaulted six spots to fourth.

 

Azbell finished the tournament in 18th place at 4-over par. Teammate Sean Cleary, who shot a 75 Friday, also was 4-over and placed 20th.
