ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - UCF junior Greg Eason took part in the prestigious Palmer Cup June 7-9 at the Wilmington Country Club in Wilmington, Del.

Eason finished the event strong. In Sunday's final round, he halved his match with Alex Carpenter of Abilene Christian University. Earlier in the day Sunday, Eason teamed with Arkansas' Sebastian Cappelen, a native of Denmark, to take a 1-up decision over Florida State's Daniel Berger and Sean Dale of North Florida.
