MEN'S GOLF Last round washed out Rainy weather cuts tournament short, disappoints coach Rainy weather took the Kansas mens golf team out of the running for a top finish at Saturday's Courtyard by Marriot Intercollegiate. Kansas had its final round of play canceled and finished in a tie for ninth place at Devils Ridge Golf Club in Holly Springs, N.C. BY TIM HALL hall@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER "Obviously we're a little disappointed that we didn't get to finish the golf tournament," coach Ross Randall said. "We felt that the cool and windy weather would have been good for us, and we would have been able to move up the leaderboard." It was the Jayhawks worst finish since Feb. 11, when Kansas finished in 11th place at the Taylor Made/Big Island Intercollegiate. The Duke Blue Devils won the tournament after the final round of play was canceled. The Blue Devils shot 16-under-par as a team to win the tournament for the second straight year, defeating ACC Conference rival Wake Forest by one shot. Ward The Devils were led by freshman Michael Schachner and junior Ryan Blaum in the second round, as both players fired rounds of 68. Georgia Southern senior Aron Price won the tournament as an individual by six strokes. He shot a 64 in the first round, followed by a 66 in the second round for a total score of 130, 14-under-par. For the second straight tournament and for the third time this spring rain has cut tournaments short. Two weeks ago, Kansas was unable to build on its second place standing after two rounds in the 59th Western Intercollegiate. Saturday, the Jayhawks were once again unable to make a late move up the leaderboard. All three players tied for 27th. The Jayhawks finished the tournament with a two-round total of 580, four-over-par. Junior Luke Trammell, junior Pete Krsnich, and senior Kevin Ward led the way for the team with identical two-round totals of 145, one-over-par for the tournament. Sophomore Tyler Docking shot two rounds of 73 for a two-round score of 146 to tie for 33rd. Sophomore Gary Woodland shot a total score of 150 for the Jayhawks. The men will have a few weeks to regroup before the Big 12 Championships. The team will begin play April 29 at Whispering Pines Golf Club in Trinity, Texas. — Edited by Lisa Coble-Krings Cardinals get rings, lose series ST. LOUIS — Pat Burrell hit a three-run homer to increase his major league-leading RBI total to 15 and Bobby Abreu had three hits and four RBIs, helping Jon Lieber and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the St. Louis Cardinals 13-4 yesterday. BY R.B. FALLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Phillies manhandled the Cardinals in their final game at 40-year-old Busch Stadium, which is being demolished to make room for a new stadium after the season. They took two of three in the Cardinals' first home series after dropping two of three at home against the Nationals to start the year. The Cardinals, who received NL championship rings for their 16th pennant in a pregame ceremony, led for only one-half of an inning in the series and lost the last two games 23-8. St. Louis got homers from Albert Pujols, Abraham Nunez and So Taguchi, all coming with the game out of hand. In a matchup of opening day pitchers, Lieber retired the first 12 batters while the Cardinals' Chris Carpenter (1-1) was pummeled and failed to make it out of the fourth. Lieber (2-0), who beat the Nationals in his first start, didn't allow a hit until Scott Rolen singled to start the fifth. He gave up four runs — two earned — and four hits. Lieber struck out three and walked none and is 9-1 in his last 12 starts dating to last season. Burrell's third homer put the Phillies ahead 6-0 in the third. He was 6-for-14 with two homers and nine RBIs in the series and leads the NL in hits (12). RBIs and total bases (24). Burrell has driven in a run in all six games, a career best. Abreu had an RBI double in the first, an RBI single third and a two-run double in the fourth off Carpenter, who allowed only one run on four hits in seven innings in his season debut at Houston while retiring his last 13 batters. This time Carpenter lasted only 3 1/3 innings, giving up eight runs and 10 hits. Domestic LAWRENCE & Foreign AUTOMOTIVE Complete DIAGNOSTICS "We Stand Behind Our Work, and WE CARE!"
