Central College jumped six spots to close in sixth place at the 54-hole Garn Championship men’s golf tourney Tuesday.

After a discouraging opening round score of 326, the Dutch completed Monday’s darkness-shortened second round at 313 Tuesday morning before posting 318 to finish at 957. Division I Campbellsville University (N.C.) shot 310-310-304—924 to take first in the 21-team tourney. Harold Dobernecker took third in the individual standings at 74-75-80—229 on the par-72 Champions Trace Golf Course, which is also the site of the PGA Tour’s Barbasol Championship.

John Oltman shot 81-79-81—241 and tied for 31st with Kayden Pendergrass, who had 83-78-80—241. Jacob Moffett shot 88-81-77—246 and tied Blake Wynn, who was playing as an individual entrant and finished at 76-84-86—246. Moffett’s 77 in the final round Tuesday was among the 10 best rounds of the day.

Central is now off until the Illinois Wesleyan Invitational on April 5th and 6th in Normal, Illinois.
