Men’s golf claims first ACC title since 2006
The Tar Heels defeated Florida State in Charlotte to earn their 12th conference championship.
Senior Peter Fountain sank a par putt on the 17th hole to win his match Monday and give Carolina its first Atlantic Coast Conference men’s golf title since 2006.
Fountain, Austin Greaser and David Ford all won their respective matches 2&1 to lead the Tar Heels to a 3-1 win over Florida State at the Charlotte Country Club.
周一早些时候, the Tar Heels defeated Wake Forest, 3-2, and the Seminoles blanked Georgia Tech, 3-0, 半决赛中.
All five Tar Heels in the lineup won points with Greaser winning points in both matches. Maxwell Ford and Dylan Menante won their matches against the Demon Deacons, and David Ford and Fountain put points on the board in the afternoon versus the Seminoles.
The title is the first for seventh-year head coach Andrew DiBitetto and the seventh tournament win this season for Carolina, which matches the school record set in 1982-83.
“I was just really happy for the guys,” DiBitetto said. “They’re amazing young people and they just they put so much into it. That’s the stuff people don’t see. They put so much into being great.”
This is Carolina’s 12th ACC men’s golf championship. The Tar Heels previously won in 1956, 1960, 1965, 1977, 1981, 1983, 1984, 1986, 1995, 1996 and 2006.
