Walker Lamb was the top individual performer for Seattle University, finishing in 16th place with a score of +4 over par (220), which included seven birdies and an eagle. This tournament marked the fifth time this season that Lamb has been the highest-placing Redhawk in competition.
Kevin Li and Ben Ragland also contributed to the team’s success, both tying for 30th place with scores of +7 over par (223). Ragland recorded ten birdies throughout his rounds, while Li made nine.

Head coach Marc Chandonnet said, “We got off to an unfortunate start this week, but our guys once again battled until the end and improved every single day. The golf course, combined with some incredibly difficult weather conditions, really made this week difficult. We are happy with our finish and are trending in a positive direction with post season ahead.”
Seattle University will next compete at the West Coast Conference Championships from May 1-3 at Green Valley Country Club in Fairfield, California.
