PONTE VEDRA, Fla. (Seminoles.com) – Graduate transfer Vincent Norrman picked up his first collegiate victory at Florida State on Tuesday, using a birdie on the 18th hole to shoot 13-under and win the Timuquana Collegiate held at Timuquana Country Club.
“Golf’s a game you don’t get to win a lot, especially as an individual. For Vincent to come out in his second tournament for Florida State and to get a win against a lot of really talented players is a testament to him,” FSU head coach Trey Jones said. “And the way he won the golf tournament by bogeying his 17th hole, all tied going into 18, and he drives it down the fairway and hits it to a foot…that’s the way you want to win the golf tournament. Couldn’t be prouder of him – he works hard. He will build on this.”
