The UCSB men’s golf team finished 13th out of 15 teams in this weekend’s Visit Stockton Invitational hosted by Pacific at Stockton Country Club. The three-day, 54-hole tournament began Thursday morning and concluded Saturday afternoon.
After shooting a tournament-worst 300 (+16) on day one, the Gauchos bounced back to shoot a 279 (-5) in round two and a 285 (+1) in round three for an 864 (+12).
Matt Monheim led the way for the Gauchos shooting a 76-64-72=212 (-1) to take 31st place.
His round two score of 64 (-7) was the third lowest in the tournament.
Andrew Ricci was right behind him shooting a 74-71-69=214 (+1).
Rajvir Bedi notched the tournament’s sole hole-in-one collecting an ace on the 12th hole of the first round.
Ricci got it done on the par 5s ranking fifth and shooting a 4.22 average at seven-under.
UCSB had 161 pars, 41 birdies and two eagles.
This concludes the fall season for the UCSB men’s golf team. The Gauchos will be back in action come early February.
