Men's golf fizzles at Missouri Bluffs
Jayhawks finish in 12th-place tie at 14-team meet
Kansan staff report
The Kansas men's golf team hoped to finish at the top of the pack in the 14-team Missouri Bluffs Intercollegiate golf tournament at the Missouri Bluffs Golf Club on Monday.
Instead, the Jayhawks finished in a tie for 12th place.
The team shot a combined 898 at the par-72, three-round tournament and finished tied for 12th place with Rice University. The Jayhawks finished 48 strokes behind tournament champion Oklahoma State. The finish was disappointing at the two-day tournament for a team that, according to Kansas men's golf coach Ross Randall, had high expectations.
Individually the Jayhawks never got things going. The best showing was by senior Slade Adams, who finished tied for seventh place with Todd Lynch of Wake Forest. Adams had the opportunity to finish much higher but struggled on Tuesday.
After two rounds of play on Monday, Adams had shot rounds of 67 and 68, which put him in a first-place tie with eventual tournament champion Bo Van Pelt of Oklahoma State. Adams' first round total of 67 tied his career-best round.
In the third round, however, Adams shot a 77, which gave him a three-round total of 212 and dropped him into a tie for seventh place.
While Adams struggled yesterday, the rest of the team seemed to struggle the entire tournament. Playing along with Adams were seniors Dan Rooney and Alan Stearns, junior Kit Grove and redshirt freshman Chris Thompson. None of them cracked the top 50.
Thompson was the closest finisher behind Adams with a score of
