Golfers Finish Ninth At UNM Tucker

ALBUQUERQUE — The University of Colorado men's golf team had the same basic result here Saturday in the third and final round of New Mexico's William H. Tucker Intercollegiate, that being a strong start but finishing with struggles down the stretch as the Buffaloes finished ninth.

San Diego State held off host New Mexico to win the team title, as the Aztecs won with a 16-under 848 total; the Lobos were eight back at 856. UNLV finished third (858), TCU fourth (860) and Brigham Young fifth (861, as the Cougars shot the best round of the day, an 8-under 280, one of just three subpar scores in the final round).
