■The Oregon men's golf
team dropped from second
to seventh on the final day
of the U.S. Intercollegiate
By Peter Hockaday

What a difference a round t)f golf
can make.
After shooting rounds of 283
and 279 on the
first day of the U.S.
Intercollegiate in
Palo Altor Calif.,
the No. 23 Oregon
men’s golf team
shot a 305 Sunday
to drop from sec
ond place to seventh overall.
“Obviously, I’m very disappoint
ed,” Oregon head coach Steve
Nosier said. “We had a chance to
make a statement today, but there
were some times when we didn’t
make very good decisions on the
course, and it really came back to
bite us.”
The Ducks’ duo of John Ellis and
Aaron Byers shot significantly
higher scores in the final round
than in the opening rounds. Byers
had been in second place overall
after one round but shot a 79 Sun
day to finish tied for 23rd. Ellis
had been fourth and shot a 76 to
end the tournament pacing the
Oregon golfers, but finished 20th
overall.
Oregon was also hurt by the fi
nal rounds of Chris Carnahan and
Matt Genovese, who shot 77 and
78, respectively. Carnahan finished
43rd, while Genovese ended in
48th. Brandon Hamden was the
only Duck to improve on the final
day, shooting a 74 to finish tied
with Genovese.
The Ducks took their tumble at
the Stanford Golf Course, site of
the Pacific-10 Conference Champi
onships starting Friday.
Nosier was optimistic that his
team could repeat its first-day per
formance from the U.S. Intercolle
giate at the important Pac-lOs.
“We did play very, very well the
first two rounds and proved that
we can handle this course,” Nosier
said. “We just need to find a way
to sustain our momentum beyond
the first two rounds when we
come back here for the Pac-10
Championships.”
The Ducks went head-to-head
with all nine Pac-10 schools at the
U.S. Intercollegiate and fell behind
five of them. Oregon beat out Ore
gon State, California and Washing
ton State, but lost to No. 18 Ari
zona, No. 4 Arizona State, UCLA,
No. 6 Southern California and
Stanford.
The Wildcats won the tourna
ment by 15 strokes over the Sun
Devils. Arizona’s Chris Nallen, un
ranked coming into the tourna
ment, surprised the field and shot
a 7-under-par 206. Nallen beat out
Eugene native Jeff Quinney, ranked
11th nationally, and teammate
Andy Connell for the medalist
honors.
The Ducks will compete in the
Pac-10 Championships at the Stan
ford Golf Course starting Friday.
