05/14/2015 | Men's Golf
Tucson, Ariz. – University of Arizona freshman Gorge Cunningham competed in the Men's Golf NCAA Regional in San Diego today where he carded a 77 (+5) on the day. Cunningham is tied for 47th place entering the second round at The Farms Golf Club.
“I just didn't have my stuff today,” noted Cunningham. “It was a struggle from the beginning of the day and I managed it to the finish. I have some room to improve for tomorrow and can definitely do so.”
On the front nine, Cunningham struggled, posting a 41 (+5) after a tough stretch of double bogey-bogey-double bogey on holes 4-6.He stayed with it on the back nine carding a 36 (E) behind two birdies and two bogeys.
“The golf course setup and windy conditions made for a challenging day," head men's golf coach Jim Anderson noted. "George stayed very patient and composed and we just couldn't get anything really going. He will use many positives today to regroup and clean up a loose shot or two. We are looking forward to rain and tougher conditions tomorrow because that presents opportunity.”
