UN-Kearney golf cracks top-10 finish in regionals

May 9, 2013 by

The Nebraska-Kearney men’s golf team closed out the 2012-13 season by firing a 293 and rallying for a 9th place finish at the NCAA Central-Midwest Regional Wednesday in Kenosha, WI.  The 20-team, three-day tournament was hosted by Wisconsin-Parkside at the par 72 The Club at Strawberry Creek.  UNK ended with a 54-hole total of 888, believed to be the third lowest score by a Loper team in the Division II era (1991-present).

After rounds of 287 and 308, UNK had just four players available for the third round as Norfolk junior Lance Lawson (149/68-81) couldn’t go due to a lingering injury.  All four remaining Lopers shot 74 or better today with Wood River senior Kris Koelzer ending his collegiate career in style with a one over par 73 (34-39) that featured two birdies and a rare hole-in-one.  His eagle came on the 12th hole, a par 3 measuring 215 yards.

In the team race, Central Missouri shot a five under par 859 with two nationally-ranked clubs, Central Oklahoma (864) and Missouri-St. Louis (866), close behind. Also qualifying for the NCAA Championships later this month in Pennsylvania was fourth place Bellarmine, Ky. (874) and fifth place SW Oklahoma State (875).

Kohles makes it 2-for-2 in win at the Cox Classic

August 6, 2012 by

22-year-old Ben Kohles fired a 9-under-par 62 in the final round of the Cox Classic to win for the second straight week. Kohles came from two strokes off the pace at Champions Run and finished at 24-under par to win by three over South Africa’s Dawie van der Walt, who settled for an 11-under 60 when he missed a short birdie putt on the final hole.

Kohles is in unchartered territory in becoming the first player in Tour history to make his first two professional starts victories, pretty impressive for a guy who didn’t even try out for his high school golf team as a freshman.

“I don’t think that part has sunk in yet,” said Kohles, who will try to make it 3-for-3 at next week’s Price Cutter Charity Championship in Springfield, MO. “It’s pretty life altering.”

The top Nebraskan finisher was Ralston’s Scott Gutchewski, -14 and tied for 23rd. John Hurley of O’Neill finished 11 under.
