The UNLV men's golf team saved its best round for the final day of play at the Carpet Capital Collegiate Sunday in Rocky Face, Ga., shooting 14-over par to move into a tie for 14th place.

Host Georgia Tech held on to a big lead to capture the team title while Clemson's D.J. Trahan survived the final round to take the individual crown.

Freshman Ryan Moore (77-78-71 -- 226) broke out of his slump, carding the Rebels' only sub-par round of the event with a 71 on Sunday.

Calvin Kupeyan had UNLV's best score with a 224, while Clark Corbett finished with a 231, Brett Foulds 236 and J.C. Deacon 245.
