Transcript | Cougars Regain National Title Coach Dave Williams' University of Houston Cougars are back on top of the collegiate golf world. They wrapped up their seventh NCAA golf championship in nine years with a 36-hole total of 580 by their top four players—Marty Fleckman (71-70— 141), Jim Grant (75-71—146), Mark Hopkins (73- 73—146), and Randy Petri (73-73—147). Par on the 7112-yard Broadmoor course is 71. Wright Garrett, the other Houston team member, shot 78-71—149. In winning back the crown, Houston beat out its long-time nemesis and closest pursuer, defending champion Oklahoma State, by seven strokes. Last year the Cowpokes from the Sooner state edged the Cougars for the team crown by one shot. Fleckman's one-under-par 141 also won him runner- up honors for the individual medal championship which went to Miami's Jerry Potter who fired a 69 to go with his 70 for a 139 total. It took a score of 153 or better to qualify for the 64-man medal play. All five Cougars were regarded as top contenders for the medal play championship, and an all-Houston finals is not inconceivable. HEAD COACH DAVE WILLIAMS |
