Freshman George Duangmanee shot a final-round 71 to lead the Virginia men’s golf team at the Camp Creek Seminole Invitational on Tuesday, but the Cavaliers finished ninth in the 10-team season-opening event.

The UVA team shot 8-over 295 during the final round for a three-day total of 885. Wake Forest and Florida State tied for the tournament title at 22-under 842.

The 10-team field was made up of ACC programs.

Duangmanee finished in 49th place in his collegiate debut. He had started play Sunday with a score of 84, but rebounded to shoot a combined 2-under for the final two rounds of the tournament.

The team’s top overall finisher was sophomore Pietro Bovari, who was 31st overall at 4-over 220. He opened play with a 72 and shot 2-over 74 during each of the final two rounds.

Senior Jimmie Massie placed 34th at 5-over 221 after shooting 77 during Tuesday’s round.

The Cavaliers return to action Jan. 25 when they play in the two-day Timaquana Collegiate in Jacksonville, Fla.
