Owls Sizzle at Show Me Summer Shootout
(FULTON, Mo., Sept. 1) - The William Woods University men's golf team kicked off the 2009-10 season with a nine-stroke victory at Tanglewood Golf Course. The Owls opened with a 293, good enough for a two-shot lead over the University of Arkansas- Fort Smith and closed with a two-under par 286 to pull away from the field.
Sophomore Nick Wilson ( Rocheport, Mo.) fired rounds of 71 and 70 for a 3-under par 141 total to finish tied for individual honors. Sophomore J.D. Nash (Newburg, Mo.) and senior Kyle Kovar ( Columbia, Mo.) joined Wilson on the All-Tournament Team with two-day totals of 143 and 145.
" We have a very young but talented team. I'm very pleased with our opening effort", said Owls Head Golf Coach Barry Doty following the final round. “Nick Wilson is a very talented player and is capable of great things this year for us", added Doty.
Owl's freshmen Chris Rienert ( Parkville, Mo.) and Chris Martin ( Rolla, Mo.) each had solid debuts with scores of 147 and 150.
Next up for the Owls is the Missouri Intercollegiate at Porto Cima Golf Club in Osage Beach, Mo. on September 8th and 9th.
