April 22, 2012
Aggie Invitational Final Results
BRYAN, Texas - Senior Jonnie Motomochi had two birdies and just one bogey at the tough Traditions Club in Bryan, Texas to card a 1-under 71 and the Oregon State men's golf team shot a 21-over 381 for the second consecutive round to finish in eighth place at the sixth annual Aggie Invitational on Sunday.
The Beavers concluded the two-day, 54-hole tournament with an 80-over 398-381-381--1,160 in the 6-count-5 format that was played at the par-72, 7,146-yard Traditions Club, their final regular season event before hosting the Pac-12 Men's Golf Championships this Friday through Sunday, April 27-29, at Trysting Tree Golf Club.
Motomochi, who is winding down a very successful four-year career with the Beavers, birdied his first hole of the day, the par-5 10th, and reeled off 10 straight pars before taking a bogey on the par-4 third hole. He got right back in the red with a bird on the par-4 fourth hole and finished the tourney in sole possession of 14th place, his second-best finish this season, with a 9-over 79-75-71--225.
