Nick Santrach (Sr., Coon Rapids, Minn.) put together the best tournament of his Macalester career, placing fifth at the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) Championships at Bunker Hills Golf Course in Coon Rapids Saturday through Monday.

Santrach was tied for fourth after Saturday's round of 74 and moved into a second place tie Sunday with a collegiate-best score of 72. His 76 scorecard in Monday's final round gave him a 6-over-par 222 for the tournament.

He moves up from his 19th-place MIAC tourney finishes posted as a sophomore and junior. Santrach scored a 230 last season and 237 two years ago. He was just a couple strokes out of second place. Concordia's Andrew Whitchurch scored a 69 Monday to walk away with medalist honors with a 1-under-par 215. Rounding out the top five were St. Olaf's Chris Conklin (220), Carleton's David Flynn (221) and Ton Krogen of St. John's (221).

St. John's held off St. Olaf for the team trophy.

The Scots finished in ninth place with a three-round tally of 960 (321-323-316). The team's No. 2 golfer was Ben Langworthy (Sr., Tucson, Ariz. / Tucson Magnet School), who placed 27th in this 50-player field with a 236 (80-78-78).

The Scots have one more tournament of the fall campaign – the Oct. 9-11 Twin Cities Classic.
