| Zach Healy shows off his Ka'anapali Collegiate Classic plaque Sunday. |
Healy, a sophomore, finished at 8-under 205, including an even-par 71 on Sunday on Royal Ka'anapali Golf Course. He claimed a 1-shot victory over Clemson's Brad Dalke.
"I stayed really patient and tried to play stress-free golf knowing that, in the wind, tap-in pars were really good," Healy said. "I really putted well this week and kept the ball in front of me. I made some key putts and struck the ball real well."
Afterward, Healy was chosen as the Golfweek Player of the Week.
The 12th-ranked Bulldogs placed second at 3-under 849 after closing with a 2-over 286. Oklahoma -- coached by former Bulldog Ryan Hybl -- completed a wire-to-wire victory at 15-under 837.
Healy was supported by senior Lee McCoy, who added a fifth-place finish at 2-over 215.
The Ka'anapali Collegiate Classic was the Bulldogs' fifth and final fall event. Georgia was second in three events, fourth in one and sixth in one.
The Bulldogs will return to action in February in the Puerto Rico Classic.
