Bremerton, Washington - Pacific Golf, playing in their second tournament within a week, closed out Tuesday afternoon at the Husky Invitational with a final round 295, their best of the 54-hole tournament. Sophomore TJ Bordeaux led the Tigers for the second straight year in Washington with back-to-back rounds of 73. However, this time around the final round wasn't rained out and Bordeaux followed it up with a final round 72 to push the Tigers to a sixth place finish.

Senior Charlie Van Sicklen, finished three-over in Pac-10 heavy field, riding a rollercoaster of both sickness and his 22nd birthday. Van Sicklen's 12th place finish is his best showing since the 2006 Pacific Invitational.

Alex Johnson shot rounds of 77-73-74 for the Tigers while Alex Grieb and Patrick Kucich chipped in with 54-hole scores of 233 and 237.

"I'm really proud of how we competed this week," said coach Goethals. "This is a really good golf course with a really good field. We need to work hard on closing out these tournaments and finishing strong."

Host school Washington ran away with the tournament as the only team to shoot under-par for the two-day event. Cal finished second and San Diego State
