Trevor Werbylo of Arizona tied for the individual title with Jacob Skov Oleson of TCU and Ludvig Aberg of Texas Tech, and led the Wildcats to a share of the team championship with North Carolina in The Prestige on the Greg Norman Course at PGA West in La Quinta.
The Wildcats, who won the Arizona Invitational two weeks ago, have claimed multiple titles in the same season for the first time since 2006 after being invited to the tournament at the last minute.
“I don’t even know, to be honest with you,” Arizona Coach Jim Anderson said when asked what his team would have been doing if Oklahoma and Texas had not withdrawn because of concerns over the Covid-19 situation in California.
“So much of Covid is a little bit one step at a time. If this didn’t work, we did have a massive contingency plan to maybe try to host another tournament ourselves in our desert.”
Werbylo posted a score of 73-67-69—209, 4-under-par, while Olesen finished at 71-68-70—209, and Aberg wound up at 69-67-73—209.
