PROVO — Freshman Peter Kuest and senior Alex White won medalist honors in leading BYU’s men and women to a clean sweep of the West Coast Conference Golf Championship Saturday at Riverside Country Club. Pepperdine’s women and men finished second.
Kuest tapped in a par putt on the first hole of a playoff with Saint Mary’s Hayden Shieh to capture his first college tournament title. Both finished the 54-hole championship at 11-under par.
“I’m a little star struck right now,” said Kuest, who came to BYU out of Fresno with influence from former Cougar and PGA Tour Hall of Famer Johnny Miller.
