SAVANNAH, Ga.—The Gamecocks struggled at Savannah Country Club with an 11^th place finish at The Southern hosted by Georgia Southern.
 
For the 54-hold tournament, Jax State posted a +78 team score of 942 with rounds of 318, 316, and 308. Georgia Southern was the overall champion at 880.

"It obviously wasn't the performance we wanted this week," said coach Robbie Fields. "We had another opportunity to take advantage of what I called a great weekend of preparation, but at the end of the day we have got to get out and compete. We challenged the team with that today and, for 15 holes, they responded. At some point this team will believe what they're capable of, so we'll get back to work for our next opportunity which I am really excited for." 

Leading the way individually for the Gamecocks was Ebby Somers in a tie for 24^th at 16 over for the tournament. Somers opened with a one-over 73 followed by rounds of 79 and 80.
 
Lara El Chaib in 35^th place with a total of 234. After opening with an 82, the freshman posted rounds of 78 and 74.
 
Paula Perez Cubinas and Rachel Camp were in a tie for 48^th at 22-over. Perez Cubinas posted a pair of 80s during play on Monday, then finished on Tuesday with a 78. Camp bounced back from an 83 in the first round with scores of 79 and 76.
 
Emile Clausen posted scores of 84 and 82 during play on Monday.
 
The Gamecocks will return to action next Monday at The Alley hosted by Mississippi State at Old Waverly Golf Club.
