After three days of competition, they recorded a team total of 874 (290-294-290) and finished a mere stroke behind third place Washington (873). Colorado (862) won the event, while Fresno State (867) finished in second. In a pool of 18 teams, the Ducks can be proud of their overall performance as a team and should take this event away as a good experience moving forward.

Leading the way for the Ducks throughout the tournament was Ryann Ree, who shot an even-72 today to finish with a one-over for the tournament. Ree paced the Ducks in the individual standings with an 11th-place finish. Sophomore Jonathan Woo (71-74-73=218) finished in a tie for 17th, while freshman Zach Foushee finished a tie for 24th. Rak Cho (76-72-73=221) carded a one-over 73 today to finish in a tie for 27th.

Troix Tonkham (70-71-69=210) of Fresno State carded a six-under to win the tournament, while his teammate Rufie Fessler (75-69-69=213) finished three strokes back.

On the horizon. The Ducks now take a couple weeks off before resuming play at the Oregon Duck Invitational at the Eugene Country Club on March 25-26.
