Beavers Tied For Fifth After Day One At Bandon Dunes
March 10, 2019 | Men's Golf
BANDON, Ore. – The Oregon State men's golf team had a solid start to the 10th Annual Bandon Dunes Championship in tough weather conditions on Sunday.
The Beavers shot a 12-over 300 at the par-72, 6,954-yard Bandon Dunes Course and are tied for fifth with Fresno State, Denver and USC Upstate.
Ohio State leads the 17-team field with a 3-over 291, while Utah is second with a 6-over 294 and San Jose State and SMU are tied for third with an 11-over 299.
The second round of the three-day, 54-hole tournament begins at 8:30 a.m. on Monday and live scoring is available at golfstat.com.
"I'm not really sure what to make of today," Oregon State head coach Jon Reehoorn said. "For the majority of the day we played well enough to be close or in the lead. It seemed like everything that could go wrong all happened in the final four holes when the wind was blowing 20 miles-per-hour.
"As a whole, we need to keep doing what we are doing and make some small adjustments. But overall the team is doing a lot of good things."
Sean Kato was steady throughout the day with 15 pars to lead Oregon State with a 2-over 74. Spencer Tibbits and Kyosuke Hara both carded a 3-over 75 and Shawn Lu posted a 4-over 76 to make up the Beavers' first round score.
Nolan Thoroughgood finished with an 11-over 83 and Carson Barry, who is competing as an individual, shot a 5-over 77.
Only two golfers in the 107-player field finished in red figures -- Daniel Wetterich of Ohio State with a 3-under 69 and Blake Tomlinson of Utah with a 2-under 70.
