The team fell back in round 3. Maybe a few loose shots or missed putts compared to prior days. It was enough to drop Stanford to 5th. But the total of 56 under par was the 2nd lowest team score in program history.
Stanford finished behind the #5, 6, 7, and 16 teams but beat the #4, 11, 15, 17, and 26 teams. Placing high in a strong field like this helps the Cardinal get the ranking points they need to move up from the current #35 position.
Senior Nathan Wang led Stanford with an 8th place finish. Stanford only had 3 top 10 finishers all last year so more evidence that this year's team may be have some upside.
