The University of Jamestown took the men’s team title by one stroke over the University of Manitoba, 602-603.
Cody Reynolds, a freshman at Minot State and a former golfer at Minot High, won the men’s individual competition, thanks in large part to an albatross (double-eagle) on hole No. 17 that broke a three-way tie. After his first shot on the hole landed in the fairway, Reynolds used a 3-iron from 245 yards out to accomplish the rare feat. Reynolds shot a 69 on Sunday and a 72 on Monday to finish at 3-under par for the tournament, the only golfer to score under par.
