Wade (75-68, 143) matched his best round of the year by tallying four birdies and ascended 40 positions up the individual leaderboard to finish in a tie for 13th place.

“We had a very solid round today and a it was a good way to finish the fall,” commented head coach Mike Grant. “Mike really played well today in tough conditions and had a tremendous fall.”
