PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — Holding onto a one stroke lead and approaching the 18th green, Eduardo Carrete showed composure on an impressive up-and-down to secure his first career medalist honor as the Saint Mary’s men’s golf team finished runner-up at the 2016 Saint Mary’s Invitational at Poppy Hills Golf Course.
After a solid drive that found the fairway on the 18th hole, Carrete uncharacteristically pulled a 3-wood into a deep bunker. His third shot was no easy task as he had at least 50 yards to find a a tough pin location tucked in the back side of the fast green.
