BANDON, Ore. – Three Oregon State men's golfers finished in the top five to lead the Beavers to a dominating win at the 16-team Bandon Dunes Championship on Tuesday.

"I'm really excited for our guys," Reehoorn said. "It's so awesome to have all five guys in the mix and playing well. A huge emphasis the past week or so has to be to stay in the moment, take care of the shot right in front of them, and they were impressive."

Kyosuke Hara (72-70-68) and Spencer Tibbits (71-69-70) both finished in a tie for third place with a 3-under 210.

Hara's previous best finish was a tie for sixth place as a freshman at the Alister MacKenzie Invitational. The senior now has three top 10 finishes and 23 career sub-par rounds.

"The round by Kyosuke today was so impressive considering how hard the wind was blowing the last half of the round," Reehoorn said. "As a senior, it's awesome to see him playing his best as it gets closer to the end of his career as a Beaver. I'm really excited to see how he can build off of this and finish it off."

Tibbits notched his fourth top-five finish this season and the 11th top 10 finish in his three-year Oregon State career. The All-Pac-12 golfer had 12 birdies through the three rounds and Bandon Dunes and has 42 sub-par rounds in his career.

Carson Barry finished in a tie for fifth place with a 2-under 68-70-73--211. He has had a sensational sophomore campaign with three top-five finishes, including medalist honors at the Oregon State Invitational this past fall.

Freshman Jackson Lake finished in a tie for 18th place with a 1-over 70-72-72--214 and Shawn Lu posted a 4-over 73-68-76--217 to finish in a tie for 34rd place.

Alec Berrey and Nolan Thoroughgood both competed as individuals. Thoroughgood finished in a tie for 21st place with a 2-over 73-71-71--215 and Berrey finished in a tie for 62nd with an 11-over 78-72-74--224.

The Beavers have two weeks off before competing at the Duck Invitational in Eugene on Monday, March 23 and Tuesday, March 24.
