VIU Mariners golf team gains valuable experience in first PACWEST tournament
KELOWNA — The first PACWEST golf tournament of the season saw the VIU Mariners finish in the middle of the pack.
VIU finished in a tie for fourth place with a team total of 606 at the two day event at the Okanagan Golf and Country Club.
Wyatt Brook and Taylor Henderson were the top players on the men’s team after both shooting 149 and ending up in a tie for 12th.
Saturday’s round didn’t finish well for the VIU contingent but Henderson says both he and Brook had a much better outing on the final day.
“We came out firing. I think Wyatt was -3 at one point through 13 holes. I was +4 early and came back and ended up +1 at the end of the day,” said Henderson.
