    For the second consecutive week, Chris Dieter led the Falcon golfers. Dieter finished tied for 38th place, carding a two-day total of 222 (73-75-74). Matt Sakowitz (74-76-73-223) and Ben Leestma (74-76-73-223) were both one stroke behind their teammate.

    The two-day tournament, which took place at the UNM Championship Golf in Albuquerque, N.M., was won by Brigham Young University (861), followed by runner up UNLV (863). BYU's Billy Harvey won the individual title, shooting nine under par for the tournament.
