UNIVERSITY RELEASE — Originally published by Ole Miss Athletics, Sept. 29, 2026.
It came down to one putt on one hole. Ole Miss walked to the final holes of the Bryan Bros Collegiate tied for first with Liberty and No. 13 Arkansas, and Collins Trolio ended the argument by drilling a putt on 18 to secure the win. The Rebels finished at 833 (-19) in West Columbia, South Carolina, edging Arkansas after a back-and-forth that ran to the very end.
The Final Numbers
Ole Miss — 833 (-19), first place
Who Did It
- Collins Trolio — T2 at 8-under (69-67-69), and the putt on 18 that won it
- Eduardo Matarazzo — T5 at 6-under (70-68-69), including a birdie on 15
- Cooper Claycomb — T9 at 4-under (69-72-68) on a late run of birdies
- Daniel Tolf — T30 at 2-over (69-71-75)
- Finn Meister — T42 at 4-over (70-75-72)
- Tomas Restrepo — T66 at 9-over (77-73-72)
How It Went
The final round turned into a three-way race with Liberty and Arkansas that never separated. The Rebels entered the closing holes level with both.
Matarazzo’s birdie at the 15th mattered in a tournament decided by that kind of margin, and Claycomb’s 68 — his low round of the week, closing him at 4-under — came on a late stretch of birdies. Trolio, at 69-67-69 for the week, took care of the rest on the last green.
Three Rebels finished inside the top 10 individually: Trolio T2, Matarazzo T5 and Claycomb T9.
Up Next
Ole Miss returns to action next week, Oct. 5-6, at the Hamptons Intercollegiate in East Hampton, New York, at the historic Maidstone Club.
