ROCKY FACE, Ga. -- Freshman Kevin Kisner turned in his second straight Top-10 individual finish in leading the Georgia men's golf team at the Carpet Capital Collegiate.
Kisner, a freshman from Aiken, S.C., fired a 1-under 71 in the final round at The Farm on Sunday. Kisner finished tied for 10th place at 3-under 213, eight shots behind co-medalists Bill Haas of Wake Forest and Troy Matteson of Georgia Tech.
Kisner had placed sixth in the Bulldogs' season-opening event, the Inverness Invitational in Toledo, Ohio.
