SAN FRANCISCO — The University of Colorado men’s golf team moved up four spots into 11th place, as the second round of Stanford’s “The Goodwin,” was completed here Friday.
No. 11 Georgia Tech carded one of the best two single round scores Friday to leapfrog into the lead; after a 10-under 270, the Yellow Jackets own a 36-hole score of 13-under 547. No. 13 Oklahoma remained in second, one back at 548; San Diego turned in the other 270 single round score to move from eighth into third at 6-under 554. First round leader, host and No. 8 Stanford is fourth (556), with No. 66 San Francisco rounding out the top five (558).
Colorado, ranked No. 51, started slow for the second straight round, the five players a combined 8-over through four holes (with the four who would tally the team score at the end of the day 4-over). But the Buffaloes, who had just one birdie and 15 bogeys on the back nine Thursday played those holes much better, with nine birdies and nine bogeys the second time around the course. When the smoke cleared, CU remain tied for 15th place after morning play was completed but moved into 11th with an 8-over 568 total after recording a 1-over 281 for Friday’s round which was the 10th-best of the day.
CU is just 10 strokes out of fifth in a 28-team field comprised of 14 top 75 schools and 18 of the top 100.
Sophomore Dylan McDermott put a second round in the 60s into the books on the 6,939-yard, par-70 TPC at Harding Park course, as he fashioned a 1-under 69 and is tied for fifth with a 3-under 137 score. He is just three back the lead in what could be considered his neighborhood, as he hails from Granite Bay, just two hours northeast of San Francisco. He had two birdies and 15 pars and a single bogey Friday and is one of just nine players of the 155 competing here to post two sub-70 scores. He’s playing the par-5 holes the fourth-best in the field at 4-under with his 28 pars over two days tied for sixth.
Sophomore Tucker Clark matched par, as he is in with a 1-over 141 score through two rounds that has him tied for 38th. He had two birdies and 14 pars opposite two bogeys Friday, with the birdies coming in a 12-hole stretch where he was 2-under. His 27 pars overall are tied for eighth in the field.
Sophomore Justin Biwer was one of the biggest movers of the day, as he also shot an even-par 70 that has him tied for 65th with a 4-over 144 total; he jumped 33 spots in the standings. He had a team-high five birdies to…
