Atlanta, Ga. -- Florida State's 15th-ranked men's golf team battled through a blue-chip field to reach the match play finals at the Atlanta Athletic Club before losing to ACC rival North Carolina 3-1-1 on Wednesday. Golf Channel televised the final nine holes of the championship match.
The Seminoles, who reached the finals by defeating Florida Tuesday in match play, got a win from senior Brett Roberts 3&2 and sophomore Luke Clanton tied his match. Senior Gray Albright mounted a terrific charge on the back nine before losing 2&1, while senior Frederick Kjettrup and true freshman Tyler Weaver both lost 4&3.
FSU played without senior Cole Anderson who led the Seminoles to a win at the Stephens Cup with a second place finish in the Noles previous outing.
The tournament was the final of four fall matches for FSU who will be one of the favorites to reach the NCAA Championship matches in the spring. Florida State finished eighth at the Folds of Honor Intercollegiate in Grand Haven, Mich. on September 6th, sixth on September 17th at the OFCC/Fighting Illini Invite on famed Olympia Fields in Illinois, sixth at the Ben Hogan Invitational in Fort Worth, Tex. on October 3rd and won the Stephens Cup in Dallas, Tex. on October 10.
