Cougars shoot low round of tournament to tie for fifth; Austyn Reily, Chi Chun Chen among Top-20 leaders
LAREDO, Texas – Behind one of the day's lowest team scores, the University of Houston Men's Golf program surged into a tie for fifth in the final team standings of the Border Olympics at Laredo Country Club on Tuesday afternoon.
The Cougars posted a score of 9-under 279 on the 7,375-yard, par-72 course to join Michigan and Sam Houston at 12-under 852 over 54 holes.

Freshman Chi Chun Chen tied for 15th at 212 while junior Wolfgang Glawe tied for 39th at 218.
