Liberty's Josh Ryan, who was tied for the individual lead coming into the day, fell to 15th place with a final score of 7-under par 209 (66-66-77).
Overall, the Flames fell down the leaderboard during the final round on Monday and finished the event in eighth place with a 15-under-par 849 (279-273-297).
