U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. – Freshman Cameron Kahle led the Air Force golf team on the final day of the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate, Tuesday, Oct. 19, at the N.M. State Golf Course in Las Cruces.
As a team, the Falcons shot a three-round score of 894, the best of the season, to finish seventh. The team's 292 in the second round was also the best of the season and tied as the third-best score in the second round of the tournament.

New Mexico State, the host school, won the tournament with an 859 (+4) while Northern Colorado was second (867). Air Force's seventh-place finish was the highest in any tournament this season.

Junior Isaac Layne led the Falcons with a 218, his best 54-hole score of the season to tie for 14^th overall at the tournament.

Kahle's 72 (+1) is the second-best round of his collegiate career. He tied for 33^rd overall, second on the team, with a 54-hole score of 225. About as consistent as possible, Kahle had two bogies and one birdie in the final round.
