Men’s golfers in 22nd place
After one round of NCAA Tournament play Wednesday, the
men’s golf team is tied for 22nd place out of the 30 teams
competing with an 11-over-par score of 299.
Arizona is way ahead of the rest of the field, leading with an
8-under-par 280. In second place is Georgia Tech, one over at
289.
Freshman Steve Conway leads UCLA with an even-par 72. Junior
Parker McLachlin (Tie-46th place, 74), freshman John Merrick (T-96,
76), sophomore J.T. Kohut (T-116, 77) and sophomore Travis Johnson
(T-143, 80) round out the team.
After today, half of the field will be eliminated, meaning that
the Bruins must remain in the top 15 to continue in the NCAA
Tournament.
After round one, the Bruins were three strokes out of 13th
place.
