Kelly fired an opening-round 68 in the first round and closed with a two-over-par 72 to finish three strokes behind medalist Ryan Swanson of St. Bonaventure. The Australian led the field in par-four scoring with a stroke average of 3.75 and an overall score of five-under par. The senior also led the competition in birdies with nine, two more than the next best player. As a team, the Blackbirds finished in seventh place, one shot behind Northeast Conference rival Quinnipiac, at 610. St. Bonaventure shot a tournament-best 281 on the final day to overcome an eight-stroke deficit and win the team competition. LIU's men's golf team finishes its fall schedule on Oct. 27-29 at the Mount St. Mary's Fall Invitational in Emmitsburg, Md.
