Men's Golf Hawai‘i Hilo Sports Information

Bercan, Yamashita, Crinella Place Top 20 at WWU Invitational

Hawai‘i Hilo Men's Golf finished at No. 9.

BELLINGHAM, Washington – Dylan Bercan, Katsuhiro Yamashita and Ben Crinella each placed in the top 20 as Hawai'i Hilo Men's Golf finished at No. 9 in this past week's Western Washington University Invitational at the Bellingham Golf & Country Club.

Bercan led the way with a minus-two finish as Yamashita followed with one shot behind. Crinella, who played as an individual and did not factor into the team's total score, shot even-par. The aforementioned three Vulcans finished strong with round scores of 67, 70 and 69, respectively, to shoot up the leaderboard into the top 20.

Both Bercan and Yamashita finished off the week-long Washington trip with two top-20 individual placements against tough regional competition.

Colorado Christian's Xavier Bighaus finished at 13-under to help lead his team to taking the victory at minus-37. The Cougars also had golfers slotted in at the No. 3, No. 4 and No. 7 spots.
