PALM DESERT, Calif. — The University of Colorado men’s golf team dueled back and forth for the lead with Oregon here Sunday, but in the end, the Ducks held off the Buffaloes as CU finished second in the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate. Oregon, ranked No. 46 in the nation, finished with a team score of 837, good for a three-stroke win over No. 62 Colorado, which had a 24-under par tally of 840.
The Ducks entered the final round a stroke up on the Buffs, and the lead see-sawed through the first 10 holes. Oregon took control after CU had some troubles on No. 11, one time building the lead to six strokes; Colorado cut that in half but ran out of holes and settled for the tournament’s runner-up.
No. 41 and Idaho tied for third with 849 scores, while No. 67 Oregon State rounded out the top five (855).
