EVENT ON US COLLEGE CIRCUIT

Rain washed out one of the scheduled three rounds, leaving Fergal the winner with scores of 73 and 69 for a two-under-par total of 142. He won by two shots from Jeremey Jeansonne (McNeese State University) who scored 71 and 73 for 144 over the 6,707yd, par-72 course.
Christoper Carson from Dunoon, a third-year student at Sam Houston State, finished joint 35th on 153 with rounds of 79 and 74.
