SANTA CRUZ, Calif. -- The Wyoming men's golf team closed out the 63rd annual Western Intercollegiate on Tuesday with a 15th-place finish at the Pasatiempo Golf Club. The Cowboys finished with a team score of 929 (+89).
“We had great individual rounds at different times, but we couldn’t put it all together and that is the difference,” said UW head coach Joe Jensen. “As a team, we have to get to a point where we are stringing good rounds together. If we can do that, we will be right where we want to be. This is a great tournament and the course was extremely challenging. We just made too many little mistakes.”
During Tuesday’s final round, the Cowboys shot a 307 (+27) and put them one stroke ahead of Kansas and within 20 strokes of six other teams.
Individually, sophomore Zach Zaremba had a very good final round, shooting a 71 (+1). With that score, Zaremba finished with a three-round total of 226 (+16) and was the Cowboys best finisher by tying for 32nd in the 93-man field.
Oregon overcame a four-stroke deficit to win the tournament with a three-round total of 865 (+25). Colorado and Fresno State tied for second with three-round totals of 873 (+33).
Oregon State’s Diego Velasquez ran away with the tournament title after posting an even-par three-round total of 210. Michigan State’s Jack Newman and Colorado’s Derek Tolan tied for second place with a total of 213 (+3).
The Cowboy golf team will return Monday and Tuesday, as they host the 2009 Cowboy Classic, presented by Cleveland Golf, at Talking Stick Golf Club in Scottsdale, Ariz. The event will be held in conjunction with the third annual Cowgirl Classic, which is held at the Ocotillo Golf Club in Chandler, Ariz.
