The team from the University of Oregon overcame a one stroke deficit in the final round to beat reigning champs Augusta State.

We’ll be posting a wrap up shortly, but just wanted to give a quick update.

Another day, another tremendously windy experience out at the Hippodrome.

After a slight rain delay this morning, the final rounds of the individual play got under way.

In the morning, the B Pool played the Hogback, and the A Pool was on the Hippo main course.  In the afternoon, they switched.  Both courses were played from the longest of the tee placements.  Combine this with plenty of wind, and the challenge was intense.

When the dust settled, it was local Augusta State player Jason Lynn on the top of the leader board.  Congrats Jason!

Here’s the top of the individuals leader board:

• 1 Jason Lynn – Augusta State – 216
• 2 Connor Thompson – Clemson – 218
• 3 Chris Becker – Oregon – 224
• 3 Austin Finley – Clemson – 224
• 3 Kevin Cocks – San Diego State – 224

The top three scores from each team were combined to the total team score.  Then, we paired up the teams with the best score.  Tomorrow’s round will be a doubles round with a rolling start.  Teams with the best scores have the latest tee time.  Here’s the breakdown of the tee times.  Total team score is in parentheses.

A few storms were rolling through the Augusta area this morning, but it appears all is clear from here on out.

Players have just gone back on to the course, getting ready to resume their third round of singles.

Day Two was the beginning of Individual Play.  Lots of wind on the Hippodrome Courses.  Due to so many players this year, we had to separate the field into two pools, A and B.  They played one of each of the Hippo and Hogback courses in the morning and the other in the afternoon.  After these two rounds were complete, here’s the current individual leaders:

• Jason Lynn – Augusta State -7
• Nate Bush – Oregon -5
• Michael Hoffman – Tennessee Tech -4
• Austin Finley – Clemson    -4
• Kevin Cocks – San Diego State -4
