LAHAINA, Hawaii – The UConn men's golf team closed out their fall schedule with a 15th place finish at the Ka'anapali Classic Collegiate Invitational being held at the Royal Ka'anapali Golf Course in Lahaina, Maui.

The Huskies finished with a three-round score of 280-290-281=851 (-1) on the par 71 course.  It was UConn's lowest three-round team score in their four tournaments this fall.  East Tennessee State and Oklahoma, the defending event champion, were co-champions of this year's event, both shooting aggregate scores of 810 (-42) on the week.

UConn was led by sophomore Connor Goode (Glastonbury, Conn.) who was the Huskies top-finisher, tying for 20th overall in the field of 119 golfers.  Goode was under par in all three rounds and had his low round of the season on day one of the tournament when he carded a 67 on Thursday.  Goode shot a 69 on Friday and finished Saturday shooting a 70 for a three-day aggregate score of 206, his low tournament score of the season and his second top-20 finish.

Freshman Bradley Swaka (Ellington, Conn.) finished at or under par in all three rounds and finished tied for 47th in the field.  Swaka carded a 69-71-70=210, notching his low round score of the year (69) and his low tournament score through four events.  Junior Ray Dennehy (Princeton, Mass.) was tied for 71st overall and finished with a score of 72-72-71=215.  Dennehy matched his low round score of 71, a score he has shot three times this fall, and set a new tournament low total.
