The Kansas men’s golf team again took home the title at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational in Stevinson, Calif., on March 22.

The Jayhawks won the tournament for the second straight year, and the sixth time in seven years. The victory marked the second tournament championship for the team this spring.

The Jayhawks shot a final round 299 and a three-round total of 872, which won the tournament by 20 stokes, the biggest margin by any team in the history of the event. Kansas State and Nebraska finished the tournament in a tie for second with team scores of 892.

Senior Kevin Ward won the tournament as an individual. With a final round 76, Ward fired a tournament total eight-under-par 208. Ward opened the tournament with a first round 68 and a second round 64. His total score of 208 won the tournament by six strokes.

“It’s been kind of an up and down spring for me,” Ward said. “I was finally able to drive the ball in the fairway, make some putts and put things together.”

Sophomore Tyler Docking played with a sore back as he finished the tournament in fourth place with a total score of 216, good for even par. Sophomore Gary Woodland finished in a tie for 13th with a total score of 221. Junior Luke Trammell finished the tournament in a tie for 23rd with a 227, and junior Pete Krsnich fired a 244. Freshman John Newcomer, who played as an individual, also shot a 244 for the tournament.

The Jayhawks play today at the 59th Western Intercollegiate in Santa Cruz, Calif.
