Rice Golf: Freshman Mario Carmona leads Cabo Quernica tournament
Sophomore Mario Carmona fired a career-best five-under 66 to take a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Querencia Cabo Collegiate tournament, which is being played Sunday-Tuesday in Baja California.

Here's a link to the live scoring individual leaderboard and team leaderboard.

Mario is -2 through 7 holes today (-7 overall). He has a 2-stroke lead over Taylor Moore (Arkansas) and is 3 strokes ahead of three Top 100 players for South Florida and Cal.

The field of 75 golfer (from 15 teams) includes 24 ranked in the Top 100, including second-ranked Maverick McNealy of Stanford.

As a team, Rice was 15th -- last -- after the first round, but only one stroke behind #18 LSU. After 7 holes in the second round, the Owls are now T11, thanks to Mario's sub-par round as well as good starts by Mitchell Meissner (-1) and James Lee (E).

(UPDATE: As I was writing this, Lee got two double bogies and Kevin Reilly one, pushing the Owls back to last (15th), three strokes behind LSU, #15 Vanderbilt & #31 UH. The leaderboard can change quickly!)

Rice, Oregon State and Mississippi are the only unranked teams in the field, which is includes #2 Wake Forest, #3 Florida State and #7 Stanford.

Individually, behind the leader Carmona (-7) are Will Voetsch (+2/T43), Reilly (+11/69th), Meissner (+13/T70) & Lee (+15/74th)

(#10 Will Zalatoris of Wake Forest has withdrawn, reducing the individual field to 74.)

Go Owls!!!

RE: Rice Golf: Freshman Mario Carmona leads Cabo Quernica tournament
Alas, Carmona finished +2 today, and is now tied for 9th. Everyone ahead of him finished today's round under par.

Rice, as a team, is 8 shots behind Houston and in last place.
