WICHITA FALLS, Texas (March 20, 2012) ― Cameron’s Men’s Golf Team made a statement Tuesday at the MSU Invitational, finishing in 3rd place with a 300, two shots out of first place.

“I thought we were really ready to play … that translated to us doing a good job today,” said Head Coach Jerry Hrnciar. “We got off to a really good start but struggled on the final four or five holes. We played those final holes at +12, and we were only two shots off 1st place. We were should have had it.”

Trey Lawson paced the Aggies with a 73 (+2) to tie for 3rd place. Garrett Smith was next with a 74 (+3) to tie for 9th place, followed by Kregg Wood with a 75 (+4) in a tie for 17th place. Brady Porter and Austin Weaver each shot a 78 (+7) to tie for 39th place.

“The course played very difficult today,” Hrnciar said. “With the pin placements where they were, and the way the wind was blowing … it was difficult.”

The finish for Cameron will also go a long way for the Aggies in regional play, as CU defeated a number of regional opponents.

“It certainly helped us a lot,” the coach said. “We beat all but one of the 10 regional teams in this tournament.”

Next week, the team will travel to Muscle Shoals, Alabama to participate in the North Alabama Classic being played at the Fighting Joe Golf Club.
