NAPA, Calif. -- The University of Washington men's golf team defeated UCLA in the first round of match play, 4-1-1, before dropping match two against Stanford, 3-2-1, on Tuesday at the Gifford Collegiate. In the third-place consolation match on Wednesday, Washington and Northwestern played to a tie at Silverado Resort and Spa.
The Huskies and Wildcats played six matches and each team won two by identical and offsetting margins, and the remaining two matches were halved. In a format that mirrors the NCAA Championships, the contest was the culmination of a tournament featuring 36 holes of medal play and three subsequent matches.
Despite a 3-3 tie with Stanford, No. 14 USC won the tiebreaker, which was most holes won (7-6) to win the championship match, while No. 30 Colorado placed fifth, UCLA sixth, Wisconsin seventh and South Florida eighth.
