Golfers Falter to Fourth at UH-Hilo Invitational

Feb. 9, 2007

ATLANTA –

Robert Castro shot a 3-under-par 67 and finished in a tie for second place, but Georgia Tech faltered to a 1-over-par 281 as a team Friday and finished fourth at the UH-Hilo Invitational golf tournament in Waikoloa, Hawaii.

No. 2-ranked Stanford had all five of its players break par-70, posting a team total of 266 (14-under-par), pulling into a tie for first with defending national champion Oklahoma State (270 on Friday) at 37-under-par 803. The Cardinal then won a playoff to win the team title.

Arizona State finished third at 816, 13 shots behind the leaders, and the 20th-ranked Yellow Jackets posted a 54-hole total of 818 (22-under-par).

Castro’s 67 gave him a tournament score of 199 (11-under-par), which matched his career-low for 54 holes set on the same golf course two years ago. He logged his second straight top-10 finish and matched his highest finish as a collegian.

Jonathan Moore of Oklahoma State, the defending NCAA medalist, finished with a 65 Friday and posted a tournament total of 195 (15-under-par) to win the individual title.

Yellow Jacket sophomore Cameron Tringale, the 36-hole leader following a pair of 64s in the first two rounds, carded a 73 Friday and dropped into a tie for fifth place individually at 9-under-par 201. Tech also counted a 68 from freshman Chesson Hadley, who finished in a tie for 18th in his first collegiate event (5-under 205).

Sophomore Adam Cohan counted for Tech Friday with a 73 and tied for 59th at 213, and freshman Daniel Bowden tied for 92nd at 227 after a closing 76.
