LAKE FOREST, Ill. - The NC State men's golf team made up 13 strokes in the second round of the Windon Memorial Classic Tuesday at the par 71, 6,849-yard Conway Farms Golf Club, but stumbled in the final round, shooting 23-over-par. The Wolfpack finished 60-over and in 17th place out of the 18-team field. Jerry Richardson led NC State, firing 10-over and tying for 32nd place.
Stephen Lewton, who shot par in the second round, ended up 11-over and tied for 35th. Banks Wood carded a four-over score in the second round, but ended up 17-over for the tournament. Garry Hill struggled in the Pack's season opener, going 25-over. Despite improving by six strokes from the first to second round and maintaining that score in the final round, Rodney Thomas dug himself too deep of a hole with his first round score and finsished 30-over.
Northwestern, the host school, won the tournament with a 13-over total and Peter Richardson from Purdue was the individual medalist at one-under.
