MUSCLE SHOALS, Ala. --- Tusculum College senior Chase Carroll posted a final round 72 to card a three-day score of 220 to finish tied for 24th place at the 2009 NCAA Division II Southeast/South Men's Golf Super Regional. The 54-hole tournament was held at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at the Shoals and hosted by the University of North Alabama.

Carroll, a Knoxville, Tenn. product, wrapped up one of the finest golf careers in Tusculum and South Atlantic Conference history. For a second straight day, Carroll improved his standing, climbing 11 spots up the leader board.

With threatening weather conditions looming in the region, the start of the final round was delayed until mid-morning, resulting in a shotgun start with Carroll starting on the 18th hole. Carroll would par his first seven holes. He would suffer his first bogey of the day on No. 7, but responded with a birdie three on the following hole. But similar to Tuesday's second round, Carroll followed a birdie with a bogey moving him to two-over on his round.

The SAC Player of the Year answered with three birdies and a bogey on his final eight holes to finish even par for the day and four-over for the championship.

Carroll finished 10 shots behind super regional medalist Jake Greer of North Alabama as he finished with a three-day 210 (-6), including a final round 71. Greer led the Lions to the super regional title as UNA (868) finished just one stroke ahead of Lynn University (869).

Carroll ends the year with a 72.08 stroke average, which establishes a new school and conference single-season mark. The three-time All-SAC performer also ends his collegiate career with the best scoring average in Tusculum history at 74.29. That average is also the second lowest in the league record book.
