Green, a Medina High graduate, birdied three of the final five holes to post a closing round of 3 under par 69 and finish the three day event with a 4 under par total of 212.
Finishing 8 shots off the pace and tied for 13th, Green opened the tourney with an even par round of 72 on Monday and then had a 1 under par round of 71 on Tuesday.
