Arizona takes Pac-10 championship

Victory shined on the University of Arizona's
I<any Silveira twice Wednesday when he and his
golf team raced away with the Pacific 10
Championship.
The Wildcats hung close to tourney leader
UCLA for three rounds before pouncing on them
late to take a two-stroke victory on the sun-soaked
Eugene Country Club course. Arizona rode to its
fourth tournament win of the year on the swings
of Silveira and Eric Meeks, who shot a 68 in the
third round.
"Silveira picker! us up the last nine, but it
was Meeks who keyed the win for us." said
Arizona coach Rick LaRose.
After going one-over par for tin- first nine
holes. Silveira broke loose to birdie four of the
last six. including the decisive one at 18, to finish
with a two-under 70, a one-stroke victory' over
Arizona State's Jim Strickland and UCI.A’s David
Rhorer.
"I wasn't even thinking about winning the ti
tle until 1 birdied 15.” Silveira said. “After 15. I
knew 16 and 17 were easy.”
However, those same easy holes looked more
like graveyards to Strickland when he bogied
both to relinquish the lead.
Strickland and Rhorer, who sank a 25-foot
birdie on hole 17 to draw within one of the lead,
parred harmlessly on the final hole to give
Silveira his third tournament win of the year.
"I had bogie-froe golf in the third round, but
gutted the ball around the course today. I feel for
tunate to win. especially when I was sitting at
one-over at the turn.” Silveira said.
ASU had three golfers in the top five to draw
even with UCIA for second place while Oregon
remained a distant fourth — just three strokes
ahead of USC.
Following Silveira's four-day total of 289
were Strickland and Rhorer at 290; ASU’s Hill
Mayfair. Greg Cesario and Oregon's Tony Joyner
at 292.
Joyner came into the final round just one shot
off the lead, but he failed to capitalize on
numerous birdie opportunities after shooting a
three-over 75.
"My magic putter turned to powder," he
said.
Sitting at five-over after seven holes. Joyner
caught fire when he birdied the next three holes
But with his brother. Shell, absent from the
gallery, he was a shell of his former self that sank
27 putts the day before. Joyner blew eagle and bir
die putts of less than 12 feet on five of the next six
holes. "My stroke was a little jerky. I sank a bir
die on 14. but that didn't make up for my slow
start.” he said.
Birdies were no problem for Silveira after ho
sank five for the round. "My putting bought me
the win.” he said.
Silveira, who usually plays number one or
two for the Wildcats, asked l.aRose to place him
lower before the tournament.
“Larry hasn't played well the last few tour

(laments," latKose said “It mwiik that whoever
plays number one for us finishes number two.
This tournament we sacrificed l-arry Springer and
let one of our other guys win it," he said
Arizona holed its way to a NCAA berth;
Oregon is hanging on the lip of the cup.
"We’re still on a bubble," coach Scott
Krieger said. We might lie a little better off since
we beat USC, but it'll be about two weeks before
we know anything." he said.
Pro golfer and former Duck All-American
Peter Jacobsen had high praise for his alma mater
as he watched from the gallery. "We have some
great kids out here; they handled themselves well
this tournament." he said.
"Obviously. I was looking forward to Oregon
winning the whole deal. Down the road, when
they start maturing, they’ll do great because they
have so much talent with Kintoul, Hal Cochran,
Krieger and Hol/.gang. Coach Krieger's done a
fantastic job with these guys." Jacobsen said.
