STORRS, Conn. – The Army West Point golf team competed to a third-place finish at the Til Duty is Done Collegiate Invitational during Sunday's final round with a two-over score of 285-293-288—866.

Marcus Plunkett was Army's top finisher with a four-under score of 212. On the weekend he shot rounds of 70, 73 and 69 to place tied for sixth. Peter Kim and Dean Sakata were the Black Knights' next-best finishers in tied for 13th place with 220 strokes apiece.

Eric Peng finished in t-16th with a five-over score of 221, while Justin Pagila was in the top 25 with rounds of 72-78-73—223. Nick Turner competed to a t-35th finish with 229 strokes.

The tournament is named for Til Duty Is Done, a Connecticut-based, non-profit organization dedicated to helping military veterans with reintegration after returning from duty overseas. The aim of TDID is to reduce veteran homelessness and unemployment by linking and integrating existing organizations that provide education, employment training, employment, healthcare, mentorship and other supportive services.

Army will travel to the Naval Academy Golf Club for the Patriot League Championships between April 30 and May 1. The Black Knights finished as the runner-ups in the 2015 championship.
