WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.

No. 7-ranked Tennessee took home first place honors, followed by LSU in second place and the host Boilermakers in third. Volunteer Bryce Lewis picked up the win in the players' leaderboard, with Purdue's Herman Wibe Sekne and Nebraska's Harry Crockett rounding out the top three.
