COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - After being behind eight strokes at the end of two rounds, the Colorado State men's golf team moved up five spots in the final round of the 41st annual Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational to take first place for the second year in a row.
"We played very, very well," Head Coach Jamie Bermel said. "It was really windy (in the beginning) and we got off to a very solid start. I am very happy with our comeback after starting eight back of the leaders."
The team, lead by sophomore Zahkai Brown, finished two strokes ahead of Utah to win the tournament. Brown tied for third place with a final score of 211 (-5), five strokes behind the first place Steve Bidne of Northern Colorado.
Riley Arp (214), Bryce Hanstad (215) and Dustin Morris (215) also finished under par tied for ninth and 13th, respectively. Ryan Peterson shot a 75 in the final round to finish tied for 56th with a score of 224 (+8).
CSU's Sean McNamara finished atop the individual leader board tied for 20th with a plus-one score of 217. Kory Harrell dropped to fourth among individuals tied for 36th after shooting a 220 (+4). Junior Justin Spray shot a 72 in the final round to move up to 47th place (222, +6).
The Rams next travel to Seattle, Wash. on Sept. 27-28 to compete in the GolfWeek Preview tournament.
