LOS CABOS, Baja California Sur, Mexico -- The Weber State men's golf team shot a two-under-par 286 in the second round to fuel an eighth place finish the Cabo del Sol Intercollegiate, which wrapped up on Tuesday at the Cabo del Sol resort.
The 286 was the second-best team score of the tournament, behind San Francisco's second round 284. It came on the resort's Desert course, which the Wildcats found much more to their liking than the Ocean course, where WSU shot rounds of 308 and 304, producing a three-round total of 898.
UC Irvine won the event, shooting 882 to edge San Francisco by a single shot. Towson finished third at 886, while tournament-host Santa Clara finished fourth at 889.
Jobim Carlos of San Francisco earned the inaugural tournament's medalist honors, shooting rounds of 68-70-74 for a four-under-par 212. Texas State's Tyler Thomas finished second at 217.
Weber State was led by Michael Johnson, who shot rounds of 74-69-76 for a three-over-par 219 to tie for eighth on the individual leaderboard. Johnson's 69 was the team's low score for the week, and tied for the third lowest score of the field for the tournament.
Colton Dallimore tied for 26th after shooting 225 on rounds of 78-72-75, while Jordan Herzog finished 30th with a 228 behind rounds of 76-74-78.
Alex Herzog joined Johnson with an under-par round on the Desert course, shooting 71 in the second round to fuel a tie for 38th with a total of 230. Luke Crapo shot 233 to finish 48th.
