ROUND 3 NOTES
- The only Monarchs to score under in the round was freshman Jonathan Lewis (74-76-71—221, +5) with a one-under 71. His total of 221 placed him in a tie for seventh after three bogeys, two birdies, and an eagle.
- Starting the round off a bad note was Beau Brewer (75-76-74—225, +9) with a bogey and a triple bogey within his first three holes. He would turn it around though by nailing four birdies to two bogeys the rest of the way for a 74 (+2), which slots him in a tie for 15th place with a total of 225.
- Finishing in a tie for 20th overall was Cameron Cappuzzo (74-76-76—226, +10) following a four-over 76 performance and a grand total of 226. He was three over on his front nine before going one over on the back nine to end his day.
- Dropping four spots to a tie for 35th place was Will Campbell (78-76-76—230, +14). Much like Cappuzzo, he completed his first nine +3 and last nine +1 but the highlight of the day for him was his hole-in-one on No. 14 (par 3) to help give him a 76 (+4) on the day and 230 as his three-day total.
- It was a tale of two halves for Caleb Ryan (76-81-77—234, +18), who posted a five-over 77 today for a total of 234 and puts him a tie for 57th overall in the final standing. Holes 1-9 he tallied a bogey, a birdie, and an eagle but that could not overcome the three double bogeys, two bogeys, and a birdie on holes 10-18.
