Iowa Finishes 10th In West Lafayette

April 20, 2008

WEST LAFAYETTE, IN – The University of Iowa men’s golf team finished competition at the Boilermaker Invitational Sunday. Iowa recorded a 290 (+2) on the day and finished 10th in the 14-team field, with a 54-hole score of 870 (+6). Kent State won the event with an 842 (-22).

Vince India led the Hawkeyes again Sunday. The freshman fired a one-under par 71 to finish with a 54-hole total of 211 (-5). He finished sixth overall. Junior Cole Peevler tied for 40th with a total of 220 (+4). He posted a two-over 72 Sunday. Todd Larson recorded an even-par 72 to finish tied for 46th. Dan Holterhaus shot a one-over par 73 Sunday. The senior tied for 54th with a 223 (+7). In addition, Adam Miller finished tied for 65th with a 230 (+14).

“We were consistent this weekend, but we did not score as well as we could have,” said Head Coach Mark Hankins. “Throughout the tournament we had four solid scores, but the course was playing a little bit easier.”

“It was a good tournament for me,” said freshman Vince India. “I hit the ball pretty well and made few mistakes. As a team, we have a lot of confidence going into the Big Ten Championships. We need everyone to play well, not just one or two guys. I think we will do well.”

Iowa has completed its regular season schedule. The Hawkeyes will travel to East Lansing, MI, next weekend to compete at the 2008 Big Ten Championships.
