William Jennings placed second individually, and Connor Brown and Jonathan Griz each finished inside the top 10 as No. 16 Alabama took second at the Linger Longer Invitational, a three-day, 54-hole event that concluded Sunday in Eatonton, Georgia. The Crimson Tide posted a 27-under 837 with rounds of 278, 285 and 274.

Jennings led the way with a 13-under 203 across rounds of 68, 66 and 69, continuing a strong season that has now included four finishes of first or second. Brown and Griz both tied for ninth at 6-under 210. Brown climbed 22 spots on the final day behind a career-best 66, while Griz recorded three consecutive under-par rounds to secure his ninth career top-10 result.

“There were a lot of things that we can build off from this tournament,” head coach Jay Seawell said. “I think we are really close to playing winning golf.”

No. 35 Georgia captured the team title at 48-under 816, with No. 11 Vanderbilt finishing third at 20-under. Alabama returns to action March 30-31 at the Maridoe Intercollegiate in Carrollton, Texas.

Alabama Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

We had NFL practices, he kind of ran an NFL program there. As far as the meetings, we were in there all-day learning. Being up early, taking care of business, you have to be responsible. Coach Saban always teaches you to be accountable for your own actions. If you are late you get punished, here you get fined.
Former Alabama wide receiver Julio Jones
