UW Wraps Up Fall Slate at Ka'anapali Classic
October 31, 2019 | Men's Golf
SEATTLE – The No. 18 University of Washington men's golf team wraps up its fall campaign this weekend at the Ka'anapali Classic Collegiate Invitational, Friday-Sunday, Nov. 1-3. The three-day, 54-hole tournament will be competed at the par-71, 6,700 yard, Ka'anapali Golf Club Royal Course. Washington tees off alongside Kansas, George Washington and UC Santa Barbara at 11:30 a.m. PT on Friday.
THE FIELD: Joining the Huskies in the 20-team field are No. 5 Oklahoma, No. 15 Clemson, No. 19 Georgia, No. 23 UCLA, No. 31 South Carolina, No. 37 Liberty, No. 44 Kansas, Air Force, Boise State, Connecticut, George Washington, Gonzaga, Hawaii, North Texas, Sacramento State, Southern Illinois, UC Santa Barbara, West Virginia and Wyoming.
THE LINEUP: The Huskies will play senior Henry Lee, junior Noah Woolsey, freshman Petr Hruby, sophomore Paul Margolis and junior Jan Schneider while senior Shamu Bodhidatta and freshman Bo Peng will compete as individuals.
IN THE RANKINGS: The Huskies entered the national rankings this week as they are now No. 18 according to the Bushnell/Golfweek rankings. They are one of four Pac-12 teams to be in the top 20 in this week's rankings.
PAC-12 GOLFER OF THE MONTH: Junior Noah Woolsey earned the honor of Pac-12 Golfer of the Month for September after finishing first in both events for the Dawgs to start the season. He tied for first at the Husky Invitational then took the outright individual title at the Old Town Collegiate with a one-stroke victory. He is the first Dawg to win Pac-12 Golfer of the Month honors since March of 2015 (C.T. Pan).
TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS: Washington has been off to a successful fall campaign as it has won three of the four tournaments it has competed in so far. The Dawgs opened with back-to-back team victories at the Husky Invitational before knocking off No. 1 Wake Forest at its home course in the Old Town Intercollegiate. After an eighth-place showing at the tough Maridoe Intercollegiate, the Huskies responded by taking home the team title at the Georgetown Intercollegiate by a commanding 27 strokes.
HUSKY INVITATIONAL CHAMPS: The Dawgs opened the 2019-20 season last week with a win as they defended their team title at the Husky Invitational. Washington won the rain-shortened two-round event by nine strokes finishing with a 22-under 554 (274-280). Juniors Noah Woolsey and Jan Schneider finished with a share of the individual crown closing the 36 holes at 6-under 138. Schneider's 6-under 66 in round one was the best showing by a dawg in the event.
WHAT'S BACK: Juniors Noah Woolsey and Jan Schneider were first and second on the team in stroke average a year ago while senior Henry Lee was third and all three return to lead the Huskies this season. Woolsey competed in all 10 events, posting two top 10 efforts and finishing with a 72.60 stroke average. Schneider recorded five sub-70 rounds a year ago and was UW's top finisher in three events. Lee, the lone senior on this year's squad, led the team with three top 10 showings a year ago.
WHO'S NEW: Washington welcomes three newcomers to the team this year in Bo Peng, Petr Hruby and Nate Anderson. Peng, originally from Nanjing, China, comes to Seattle from Lake Mary, Florida. Hruby is from the Czech Republic and competed for Bishop Gates Golf Academy in Florida before coming to the Pacific Northwest while Anderson is from Paradise Valley in Arizona.
FALL SCHEDULE: Head coach Alan Murray once again put together a solid fall schedule for the Huskies first hosting the Husky Invitational, then heading to the Old Town Intercollegiate, Sept. 23-24 at the Old Town Club in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Washington next competes at the Maridoe Intercollegiate at the Maridoe Golf Club in Dallas. Closing the fall slate, the Dawgs will play at the Four Streams Golf Club in Washington D.C. at the Georgetown Intercollegiate, Oct. 14-15 and conclude at the Ka'anapali Collegiate in Hawaii, Nov. 1-3, for the second-straight year.
HUSKIES IN THE PROS: Washington golf alumni have been very visible on the pro circuits this season with C.T. Pan has had a ranking as high as 35 on the FedEx Cup and has recorded one win and two top 10 finishes this season with his first PGA Tour victory coming at the RBC Heritage. He also finished tied for third at the Charles Schwab Challenge. Alex Prugh has earned a victory on the Korn Ferry Tour while Corey Pereira has posted three top 25 showings on the Korn Ferry Tour as well.
