Kearney leads Roadrunners to eighth place at Baylor
Invitational WACO, Texas – Led by a four-over-par performance by sophomore transfer Thomas Kearney (Donegal, Ireland), the UTSA men’s golf team finished eighth at the Baylor Invitational held at Bear Ridge Golf Club (7,243 yards / par 72). Kearney overcame an opening round of seven-over 79 with consecutive below-par rounds of 70 in the final round Monday and 71 on Tuesday to end up in a tie for 16th at four-over 220.
The Roadrunners fought back from a tough opening 18 holes (308) with a 297 in the second round and a two-over 290 Tuesday. That left UTSA in eighth place in the team standings, six shots behind Southland Conference foe Louisiana-Monroe’s 889 for seventh. Baylor came from five shots down to overtake Lamar for the team title with a two-over 862 to the Cardinals’ 866. Baylor’s Green team was third (879). Jeremy Alcorn of Baylor and Justin Harding of Lamar tied for the individual title at five-under 211 and agreed to share the medalist honor.
Also competing for the Roadrunners, senior John Elizondo tied for 31st with a 54-hole total of 76-77-71=224, while junior Kitt Thabungkan also tied for 31st as an individual with a 74-76-74=224. Junior Matt Johnston (76-76-77=229) and sophomore Nick Olivarri (77-79-73=229) both tied for 53rd, with freshman Kyle Collins tying for 59th (82-74-75=231). The Roadrunners wrap up the fall season on Nov. 3-4 at the Del Walker Intercollegiate in Long Beach, Calif.
