After the women's team mounted a dramatic comeback over Oregon to reach the championship match of the East Lake Cup, Auburn's men's team captured the Isleworth Collegiate for its third win of the fall.
The Tigers, ranked third in the Golfweek/Sagarin poll, posted a winning score of 837 (-27) and rolled to a 12-stroke win over No. 12 Florida. Illinois finished third at 7-under 857.
The win marks Auburn's third consecutive team title in a full-field event to start the season, following first-place finishes at the Maui Jim Collegiate and the Marquette Invitational. With three championships in the fall, Auburn needs one more victory to tie the program record for single-season team wins.
Sophomore Brendan Valdes earned the first individual championship of his early career with a 10-under score of 206, sharing medalist honors with North Florida's Nick Gabrelcik.
At 10-under, Valdez took a five-shot lead over Gabrelcik into the final round but the Osprey played his final seven holes at 4-under, punctuated by a birdie on the last, for a 5-under 65 and a share of the individual title, his seventh of his career.
"Obviously, I was trying to keep myself in the running for the individual title, but my main focus was just helping the team pick up a win," Valdes said. "It's incredibly rewarding to be able to leave Orlando with both. This team works harder than any group I've been a part of. We're super proud of our fall, but now our sights are set on improving over the break so that we can continue to roll throughout the spring."
Auburn also received strong play from junior J.M. Butler, who finished third at 8-under 208 and senior Alex Vogelsong, who tied for fifth at 6-under 210 following a final round 70 (-2).
