Quitiquit exploded onto the scene on day one of the Championships shooting a three under par to land himself in the second spot after 18 holes.

On day two of the tournament Quitiquit shot an equally impressive round of 71 under tough course conditions. After 36 holes he remained in second place just one stroke back of the leader.

On day three of the Championships Quitiquit started the day in second place and remained there after turning in a round of 76.

Coming into Friday's round Quitiquit trailed leader Justin Lower by six strokes and after turning in a round of 71, even par, it became a waiting game to see if Lower would relinquish his lead. Lower matched Quitiquit for the day turning in a 71 and won the Championships outright.

Quitiquit finished two strokes better than the third place finisher Armando Villarreal and claimed the outright runner-up position for the Championships.

The NAIA National Championships capped an incredible year for Quitiquit and the Crusaders. Madonna won the first WHAC Championship in program history and advanced to the program's first National Championships where the team finished 22^nd overall. Quitiquit was the WHAC individual medalist and head coach Steve Mato was named WHAC Coach of the Year.

The Crusaders' top-25 finish is a program record and has catapulted Madonna onto the National golf scene. Quitiquit's second place finish is best in program and school history.
