I was at the NCAA golf championships at Riviera last week.  I attended the 3rd round hoping to see Stanford advance to match play.  Stanford has some outstanding players but they did not quite get it done.  Stanford finished about 10 shots back.  The team is young.  All of the top 5 return next year, including Patrick Rodgers who was the #3 ranked collegiate player this year and Cameron Wilson who just qualified for the US Open.

After Stanford played, I followed groups that included Oregon's team.  Saw Casey Martin a lot as he traveled back and forth between groups, talking with his players.  He still limps and needs a cart to get around.  But he is doing an excellent job as a golf coach.  His team lost to the eventual champions Texas in the semifinals on the 18th hole of the final match.
