FORT WORTH, Texas – The Huskies finished the prestigious Nike Golf Collegiate Invite on Tuesday posting a 35-over 875 (296-289-290) for a 14th place finish. In a field of nine teams ranked in the top 25 nationally, Washington was led by sophomore Jan Schneider who posted his second-straight top 25 finish as he tied for 23rd.
"I think we took a step forward this week on another championship level golf course against the strongest field we have faced so far," said head coach Alan Murray. "I think it highlighted the areas we must improve in. We didn't perform how are capable but that's okay, the guys gave their all and I believe it is just a case of getting better which we will do when we get back to Seattle. We'll have a chance to actually get to the practice facility and work with our team after a hectic first couple of weeks. I'm looking forward to the growth of our team in the next stretch before another tough field at our next tournament in Florida at Isleworth."
Schneider's second-straight top 25 finish came after he carded a a 4-over 214 (75-68-71) to tie for 23rd. Thanks to his finish, Washington has had at least one player finish in the top 25 in all three tournaments this season. Following up on his 2-under 68, the sophomore posted a 1-over 71 and knocked in three birdies over his final 18.
Fellow sophomore Noah Woolsey matched his second round score and climbed 11 spots on the leaderboard into a tie for 38th with a 9-over 219 (75-72-72). He carded three of his four birdies of the tournament during Tuesday's round and finished at a 2-over 72. Following him was junior Henry Lee with his 59th-plalce tie. Lee had his highest scoring round of the event on Tuesday with a 7-over 77 en route to finishing with a 14-over 224 (74-73-77).
Freshman Paul Margolis carded a 4-over 74 during the final 18 holes and went on to tie for 65th at 15-over 225 (72-79-74). He only erred on three holes, one of which being a triple bogey that was followed by a bogey then a birdie. Rounding out the UW group was freshman Robert Moran who finished tied for 68th at 16-over 226 (77-76-73). Moran continued to improve on the tough course throughout the tournament, improving on his score each round and closed with a 3-over 73.
Washington has a slight break before its next tournament which will be the Tavistock Collegiate, Oct. 21-23, at the Isleworth Golf and Country Club in Florida.
