Washington Back In Action At PING Cougar Classic
April 18, 2019 | Men's Golf
PROVO, Utah – The Washington men's golf team is back in action, April 19-20 for the PING Cougar Classic, hosted by BYU. The 54-hole event will take place at the par-72, 7,142-yard Riverside Country Club. 36 holes will be played on Friday, with the final round being played on Saturday morning. The Huskies are coming off a 10th place finish at the Western Intercollegiate in their most recent tournament.
THE FIELD: The field consists of 15 teams; Air Force, Boise State, BYU, Colorado State, Denver, New Mexico, New Mexico State, Northern Colorado, San Diego, Southern Utah, Saint Mary's, Utah State, Utah Valley, Washington and Wyoming
THE LINEUP: Competing for the Huskies will be junior Henry Lee, sophomore Jan Schneider, freshman Padraic Sim, freshman Ranveer Grewal and senior William Mansfield.
Two Huskies are coming off of strong tournaments at the Western Intercollegiate as Schneider finished tied for 11th at 1-under par and Grewal earned a tie for 33rd place at 5-over par.
FALL RECAP: The Huskies' fall schedule featured a very competitive slate playing on impressive courses across the country against some of the top teams in the nation. After winning the Husky Invitational, Washington went to Fort Worth for the Nike Collegiate Invite which featured nine teams in the top 25. UW then headed to championship course Isleworth Country Club for the Tavistock Collegiate before competing at the Ka'Anapali Collegiate in Hawaii.
NEW ADDITIONS: Washington added a pair of signees for next season during the break as Bo Peng and Petr Hruby signed letters of intent. Hruby, from the Czech Republic, has represented his country on numerous occasions and after spending time at Bishop Gates Golf Academy, earned a handful of top finishes at amateur events. Peng comes from Lake Mary, Florida but is originally from Nanjing, China. He posted numerous top finishes on the AGJA circuit and took third at the Future Collegians World Tour in 2017.
HUSKY INVITATIONAL SUCCESS: In just its second tournament of the season, Washington took home both the team title and individual crown at the Husky Invitational. The Huskies went 21-over 1086 for a 16-stroke victory after leading all three rounds. Additionally, freshman Robert Moran claimed his first collegiate victory shooting a 1-under 212 for the tournament title. Sophomore Noah Woolsey tied for second while junior Henry Lee tied for ninth.
FRESH ROSTER: Also most half of the Huskies roster for 2018-19 will be new to Montlake this season as the Dawgs welcome freshmen Paul Margolis (Cannes, France), Robert Moran (Dublin, Ireland), Ranveer Grewal (Ludhiana, Indiana) and Padraic Sim (Spanish Fort, Alabama). The newcomers bring a wealth of international experience as three come to Seattle from outside of the country.
WHAT'S BACK: Junior Henry Lee and sophomore Noah Woolsey were second and third on the team in stroke average a year ago and return to lead the Huskies this season. Lee competed in 13 events including earning a spot at the NCAA Pacific Regional alongside Carl Yuan. He averaged a 72.37, posted two top 10 showings with his best being a sixth-place tie while also shooting under par in 15 of his 38 rounds. Woolsey averaged 72.91 in his 12 events and finished in the top two of the lineup for UW in six of those outings.
FALL SCHEDULE: Head coach Alan Murray didn't hold back when scheduling the Huskies fall slate as UW will traverse the country and play on some impressive courses against some of the top teams in the country. Along with the first tournament in Minnesota, which featured eight teams that competed at the NCAA Championships a year ago, Washington will play at the Nike Collegiate Invitational at Colonial Country club in Texas and the Tavistock Collegiate at Isleworth Country Club in Florida. After a two-year hiatus, UW returns to hosting the Husky Invitational and welcoming some of the top teams in the region to the Aldarra Golf Club in Sammamish, Sept. 25-26. Closing the season, the team will play at the Royal Ka'anapali course in Hawaii for the first time.
HUSKIES IN THE PROS: Washington golf alumni have been very visible on the pro circuits with C.T. Pan currently sitting 113th in the FedEx Cup standings on the PGA Tour. His best finish so far this year was a tie for 16th at the Mayakoba Golf Classic. Nick Taylor ranks 101st in the FedEx Cup. Taylor finished tied for 26th at the Sanderson Farms Championship. Joel Dahmen recently earned a tie for 12th place at THE PLAYERS and also earned a tie for ninth at the Farmers Insurance Open. Dahmen is 74th in the FedEx Cup standings. Brock Mackenzie and Corey Pereira are both competing on the Web.com Tour.
