Baylor senior golfer Jonas Appel closed out his collegiate career by carding four birdies in shooting 3-under 33 on the back nine in Tuesday's final round at Traditions Club.
Jonas, who graduated Saturday, will maintain his amateur status through the summer and then "reassess and see what Q School would look like in the fall."
