SOUTH BEND, Ind. ---Led by the stellar play of Nico Sabogal, Jonah Kumfer and Earl Williams, the Pilots fought their way through the difficult conditions of Day 1 and finished strong on Day 2 to win the Pilot Invitational at Blackthorn Golf Club.
 
Sabogal finished the tournament tied for the lead as he fired a Day 2 even par 72 and although he lost medalist honors in a playoff, his 76-72 scores paved the way for a 7-stroke win over second place Cornerstone University.
 
Kumfer and Williams tied for 3^rd place overall with two-day totals of 150 and both secured a spot with Sabogal on the All-Tourney team.
