Eugene, Ore. – Wyoming men's golf sits in ninth place after 36 holes at the Duck Invitational on Monday, hosted by the University of Oregon at the Eugene Country Club.  

The Cowboys finished the day with a team score of 592 (+24) after a 297 on the first 18 holes and a 295 in the second round. Junior Glenn Workman led the team with a fairly clean card in the opening round, tallying a 72 (+1) with one birdie and two bogeys. Sophomore John Murdock shot a 74 (+3) in the first round, helping the Cowboys to a 10th-place position after 18 holes.

Junior Drew McCullough led the way in the afternoon as the only Cowboy to shoot under par. After notching his fourth birdie of the round with four holes to play, McCullough made par on every hole to secure his one-under 70. While the field struggled on the par 3 holes of the Eugene Country Club, McCullough played them one under, tied for the second-best mark as an individual.  Senior Ryan Wallen also bounced back in the second round, posting a 73 (+2) and moving UW up to ninth in the standings.

"No one could quite get anything going, but overall I'm not unhappy with how we played today," UW head coach Joe Jensen said. "The conditions were tough today. It's a wonderful course but there has been a lot of rain and we played in full rain gear the entire day. Drew [McCullough] had a great second round. We haven't had any competition for over a month so I'm cautiously pleased with how today went. I want to build throughout the second half of the spring season and today was the start of that. We're in a good position for the final round."

The Cowboys return to the course tomorrow for the final round of the Duck Invite, teeing off at 9:30 a.m. MT. Live stats are available through GolfStat.com at the link above.
