"That was a truly great round of golf." White, who attended South Eugene High School, was competing as an in dividual for the Northwest Classic, meaning his score didn't count to ward the Oregon team score. The Ducks could have used White's 63, as they carded a final round 10-over 298, dropping them one spot into a tie for fourth with New Mexico State. "We went back a step today and probably should have finished a spot or two higher," Nosier said. "But we did have a lot of good individual rounds at this tournament and if we get the right five together on the same day, we've got a chance to be pretty special." The Ducks finished with a three-day r total of 869, 23 strokes behind tourna ment winner UC-Irvine. Long Beach State finished second, 15 strokes off the pace, while Washington State finished third at 17 strokes back.
