Three Bears shot a round under par over final two rounds of the Bandon Dunes Championship
BANDON, Ore. – Northern Colorado men's golf closed out the Bandon Dunes Championship strong with a pair of 6-over, 290s as a team to finish in a tie for 13th with Denver. Over the final two rounds, three Bears shot a round under par in Coby Welch, Marcus Tait and TJ Shehee.
Welch finished tied for 12th in the tournament shooting an even-par 213. He shot a 3-under, 68 during Monday's second round with just one bogey to his four birdies. That shot him up the leaderboard from tied for 31st to tied for 12th. During the final day, he shot a 1-over, 72. He once again had four birdies on his scorecard.
Tait's best round came on Monday with a 1-under, 70. He sat at even par going into his last hole the par five 12th where he made a birdie to end up under for the round. In his round, he made five birdies. He finished in a tie for 59th with a 10-over, 223.
Freshman TJ Shehee shot under-par for the end the Bandon Dunes Championship with a 2-under, 69. Shehee put together a solid round with five birdies on his scorecard. He was one of the players to tie Tait for 59th overall with a 223.
Prenzlow's Perspective
"We had a chance to play a really nice round but struggled towards the end when the wind kicked up! This is a really tough golf course in the wind. Coby played another nice event, all the others had nice rounds but we really need to work on the things that add up to two or three really good rounds per tournament. TJ was excellent today, it is fun watching him get better! Jack and Marcus looked better this week and Logan for a first tournament freshman did some good things."
What's Ahead
UNC is off until April 6-7 when they travel to Montgomery, Texas to compete in the Bearkat Invitation hosted by Sam Houston State.
