Results

LEWISBURG, Pa. – Sophomore Brayden Dock fired a personal-best 5-under 65, one of the best rounds in Colgate Golf history, to win the Bucknell Invitational on Tuesday.

Dock charged to the top of the leaderboard with five birdies on Tuesday, including two on the final three holes. Holy Cross' Leo Chu shot 1-over on the final three holes opening the door for Dock to take the victory by one stroke. His 65 is second to only Robbie Herzig's 63 for the lowest round in program history. 

COACH KIRCHER'S COMMENTS

"Incredible round out of Brayden Dock. Amazing to get an individual win in a field like this. Brayden works hard and pours a lot into his craft. Proud is an understatement. It's nice coming to Bucknell and having some familiarity with the course and event. Coach Binney runs a great week for all of us. Our goal in a final round is always to win the day, and we did that today. It will be a nice van ride back to Hamilton ending the fall campaign on a high note. We keep learning, and will be very eager to get back in the spring. Go gate!"
