CARLSBAD, Calif. — The University of Colorado men’s golf team turned in its best second round score since early in the season and in process moved up a couple of notches into a tie for sixth as the second round of UCLA’s 11th Annual Gifford Collegiate was completed here Tuesday.
The Buffaloes have had their struggles in the second round in the last three tournaments, averaging 14 strokes over par and essentially ending any chance for a good finish in two of those events. But on Tuesday, Colorado turned in a 2-over 286 performance, the fourth-best score of the round and as a result are in a logjam where just seven strokes separate third through eighth.
