Box, the top placer among all MAC players in the tournament, was the top finisher for the Eagles at the inaugural Jim DeLapa Collegiate as he entered the third round in 16th before climbing nine spots to finish in a tie for seventh place at 4-under 206 (69-70-67), his lowest score in four events with the program and tied for fifth-best in EMU history. Playing on a par-70 course, Box shot at or below par in all three rounds to post his lowest 54-hole score as a member of the program after twice shooting 203 with Hutchinson CC in the previous two seasons. His second time recording a top-10 finish for the Eagles, Box' final-round 67 helped the team shoot even-par 280 for the 17th-lowest team round in program history while helping the team to a total of 848, the sixth-lowest 54-hole team score in EMU history.
