HUNTINGTON, W.Va. –  Something about the course at Guyan Golf & Country Club agrees with Wichita State's Dawson Lewis.

Lewis -- a sophomore from Flower Mound, Texas -- closed out his best 54-hole score as a Shocker on Tuesday to secure a top-20 individual finish at the Joe Feaganes Marshall Invitational.
 
Lewis' raw tally (68-72-71 -- 211) shaved 11 strokes off his previous 54-hole low, set last March at the GCU Invitational (222). He was 2-under-par for the tournament and ended in a tie for 20^th.
 
His only loftier finish came in last year's Joe Feaganes when he tied for 14^th. In all, Lewis has shot par-or-better in four of his five rounds at Guyan, including Monday's 3-under, 68 performance (a career 18-hole low).
 
In Tuesday morning's final round, Lewis gained ground by holding steady. Four birdies helped cancel out four bogies, and an even-par, 71 was enough to net him four spots on the leaderboard after starting the day in 24^th.
 
Tuesday was less kind to the Shockers collectively. After navigating the first two rounds at 1-under-par, WSU was +13 over the final 18 holes and slipped two notches to 11^th-place in the final team standings.
 
Zac Owens (72-66-74 – 212) ended the tournament at 1-under-par but sank from 13^th into a tie for 34^th after a final-round 74.
 
Joe Bultman (70-74-77 – 221), Grayson Wallace (76-71-75 – 222) and Lake Leroux (74-76-77 – 227) checked in 66^th, 69^th and 80^th respectively out of 96 individuals.
 
Dayton's Kyle Schmidt was individual medalist at -11, but VCU golfers staked three of the top six spots on the leaderboard to edge the Flyers for the team title by three strokes.
 
UP NEXT:
The Shockers return to action next Monday and Tuesday at the Ram Masters Invitational in Fort Collins, Colo.
