GSW GOLF STRUGGLES

VALDOSTA — Georgia Southwestern fell from the No. 1 ranking in Div. II two weeks ago, and on Monday, the Hurricanes fell down the leaderboard at the Southeastern Collegiate at Kinderlou Forest Golf Club.

The 13th-ranked Hurricanes finished Monday’s two rounds at 20-over, which tied them with Valdosta State for 11th place in the 14-team tournament.

GSW’s Craig Gibson is at even par after a pair of 72s, which is good enough for 17th place, but he is 10 shots behind North Alabama’s Tyler Chandler with one day remaining.
