Live Scoring

FORT WORTH, Texas – Following day two of the prestigious Nike Golf Collegiate in Fort Worth, the University of Washington men's golf team sits in 14^th place with a two-day score of 25-over 585 (296-289). The Huskies improved upon their day one score by seven strokes at Colonial Country Club. Washington was led by sophomore Jan Schneider who is currently tied for 24^th at 3-over 143 (75-68).

"We improved on our round one score today on what is obviously a tough championship course and we will try to do the same again tomorrow," said head coach Alan Murray. "Jan had a great score today after playing a really fine round. I was very proud of his effort today and he played extremely well. Noah shot a gritty 72 and even though Henry had a bad couple of holes in the middle, he still had a lot of good moments in his 73. Our freshmen, Rob and Paul, just had tough days but we've got another round to go and this is a great learning experience for our team."

Schneider made major moves on the leaderboard on Monday as he jumped 31 spots with a seven-stroke improvement between round one and two. Jan opened the day with a birdie on his first hole and then went even par over the next seven closing his front nine with another birdie. After the turn he birdied his 10^th and despite a double on his 12^th, went 1-under over his next six to finish at 4-under 68.

Junior Henry Lee was next for the Dawgs as he sits tied for 49^th at 7-over 147 (74-73). He posted a one-stroke difference between rounds and Monday's 18 holes featured two birdies over his final nine. Sophomore Noah Woolsey (7-over 147) also made moves on Monday as he climbed six spots to share a tie for 49^th with Lee thanks to his 73 during round two.

Rounding out the UW scoring was freshman Paul Margolis who is tied for 64^th at 11-over 151 (72-79) and freshman Robert Moran who carded a 13-over 153 (77-76) for a tie for 70^th.
