TALLAHASSEE, Fla. \u2014 Sascha Robinson<\/a> shot a final-round 65 and Florida A&M University claimed the PGA Works Collegiate Championship Individual Champion, finishing at 8-under par and 12 strokes clear of the field in a dominant three-round performance that left no doubt about which program stands atop the HBCU landscape.<\/p>\n The Rattlers posted a 54-hole team total of 844 \u2014 rounds of 280, 287 and 277 \u2014 to outpace runner-up North Carolina A&T State University (856) by 12 strokes to claim the PGA Works Collegiate Championship Team Championship. Prairie View A&M University finished third at +22 (874), while Alabama State University (890, +38), Alabama A&M University (894, +42) and the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (896, +44) rounded out the six-team field.<\/p>\n Robinson was the undisputed star of the tournament. The Florida A&M standout carded rounds of 67-69-65 for a 201 total, finishing at 12-under par \u2014 eight shots clear of Alabama State’s Quade Woods (209, -4) in the individual standings. Robinson’s closing 65 was the low round of the tournament’s final day and a statement from one of the sport’s rising talents.<\/p>\n The championship was a collective effort. Phalatphon Viboonviriyasakul<\/a> posted rounds of 68-74-71 for a 213 total (even par) and finished fourth individually, providing crucial team scoring throughout the week. Emilio Garcia<\/a> and Skyler Woods<\/a> each finished tied for ninth at +4 (217).<\/p>\n FAMU’s low final-round score of 277 was the best team round of the tournament’s closing 18 holes, highlighting a Rattler squad that not only led wire-to-wire but accelerated down the stretch when rivals applied pressure. North Carolina A&T, paced by Pedro Pereira’s final-round 67 and a third-place individual finish at -2 (211), made a late charge with a team round of 276, but the Rattlers’ lead proved insurmountable.<\/p>\n For Florida A&M, the national title represents the culmination of a program-building effort rooted in recruiting international talent, building competitive depth and establishing a culture of excellence on the course. The Rattlers entered the final round with a slim advantage and turned it into a rout \u2014 a reflection of a program that performs at its best on the biggest stage.<\/p>\n North Carolina A&T’s Drew Walker and Ignacio Zapata each tied for fifth at +1 (214), while Prairie View A&M’s Joah Bramwell also shared that spot. The Aggies of A&T finished with a trio in the top six individually, making them the clearest challengers to FAMU’s crown \u2014 but on this week, the Rattlers were in a class of their own.<\/p>\n Florida A&M University enters the offseason as national champions, a title earned by the deepest, most complete team in the field. Rattler golf has arrived \u2014 and based on the roster returning, the dynasty may be just getting started. TEAM RESULTS (Final Standings)<\/p>\n
