The University of Colorado men's golf team rallied in the final round, but in the end, the USC Trojans held off the Buffaloes by four strokes to claim the 59th Annual Pac-12 Conference Men's Golf Championships in Rolling Hills Estates, Calif.
The Buffs, ranked 46th, the No. 23 and host Southern California and No. 22 Arizona State, the trio atop the leaderboard through three rounds, duked it out all day in at times breezy conditions throughout the final 18 holes. At one point, CU pulled to within three of USC while ASU slipped back into third, but every time it looked like Buffs were going to inch closer, USC staved off the attempt with either a key birdie, or as was the case on the par-5 15th, two eagles.
