USC Finishes Ninth At NCAA Pacific Regional
May 16, 2018 | Men's Golf, Features
Trojans' streak of 11 straight trips to NCAA Championships comes to a halt.
Junior Justin Suh closed with a 3-under 69 and sophomore Kyle Suppa turned in a 2-under 70, but the No. 19 USC men's golf team was unable to find another gear this week and finished ninth at the NCAA Pacific Regional at The Reserve at Spanos Park in Stockton, Calif., on Wednesday (May 16), the Trojans' streak of 11 straight NCAA Championship finals appearances coming to an end.
The Trojans finished at 3-over 867 (295-284-288), 15 shots out of the fifth and final qualifying spot out of the region and 23 back of winner Kansas (844). Stanford was second (845) with Iowa State third (847), Alabama fourth (849) and Oregon fifth (852).
Suh, the Pac-12 Player of the Year ranked No. 1 for most of the season, finished as USC's low player, tying for 19th at 2-under 214 (73-72-69) with his 21st round in the 60s to close the year. He had five birdies against a double bogey on 13 today.
Sophomore Cheng Jin tied for 23rd at 1-under 215 (72-68-75) while Suppa tied for 50th at 4-over 220 (77-73-70). He was 3-undergoing out today, 1-over coming home.
Freshman Issei Tanabe tied for 54th at 5-over 221 (76-71-74) and freshman Kaito Onishi tied for 65th at 9-over 225 (74-75-76).
