Henley, a junior from Macon, claimed medalist honors and led Georgia to the team title at the Charleston Shootout at The Links at Stono Ferry in Hollywood, S.C., on Monday.
Henley recorded a 9-under 207 with three straight loops of 3-under 69. He won for the second time this season and for the fourth time in his career.
