CINCINNATI, Ohio - Cleveland State carded a six-over par 294 to finish 15th at the Xavier Invitational with a 54-hole total of plus-24 (888). Austin Peay won the title on the second playoff hole with the host Musketeers after shooting the low round of the day (279). The teams were competing at the 6,921 yard, par 72 Oasis Golf Club.

Xavier's John Streibich, the leader after two rounds, claimed medalist honors after posting a 68 in the final round to finish at 14-under par, 202. Austin Peay's Yoshio Yamamoto finished second at 204 (-12), while Daryl Fathauer was five shots farther back in third place.

Mike Rutgers was CSU's top finisher in a tie for 38th at three-over par, 219. Jake Scott fired a final round 70 to move into a tie for 40th at 220. Steve Weir finished tied for 55th at 224, while Doug Barber was a shot back in a tie for 60th.

"This was a nice way for Jake to finish out his first semester of collegiate golf," CSU head coach Tom Porten pointed out. "We gave away a few shots on the last hole or it would have been a pretty solid round. I think we have a lot to build on from our performances this fall, but at the same time we have a lot of hard work ahead of us."

The tournament concluded the fall portion of the Vikings' schedule.
