HUDSON, Ohio-- The Baldwin Wallace University men's golf team placed fifth at the 2016 Ohio Athletic Conference Spring Invitational Tournament, hosted by John Carroll University at the Country Club of Hudson.

The Yellow Jackets were led by freshman Nick Infanti (Clarksburg, Md./ Clarksburg) led the way as he fired an 18-hole total of 74 and a nine-hole score of 37 for a 111 total strokes.

Infanti was followed by junior All-Ohio Athletic Conference player Scott Schroeder (Aurora) with a 75-39 for 114 strokes, junior All-OAC player Matt Kershner (Independence) with 78-41 for 119 strokes, junior Weston Lucas (Columbia Station/ Christian Community School) had 80-44 for 124 strokes and senior Connor Duplin (North Canton/ St. Thomas Aquinas) had 85-43 for 128 strokes.
