OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma State's men's golf team fired a 273 on Tuesday during the third round of action at the Jackson T. Stephens Cup to finish atop the leaderboard at Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club.
The 14th-ranked Cowboys finished at 846, 6-over par, and four shots clear of SMU at the par-70, 6,964-yard layout. The 7-under day was the low round of the tournament by six shots and propelled head coach Alan Bratton's squad into the top spot after 54 holes.
OSU will face the Mustangs in tomorrow's match play championship tilt at 12:20 p.m. San Diego State finished third at 852, while Oklahoma was fourth at 855. Those two teams will square off in the consolation match.
OSU's Filip Fahlberg-Johnsson narrowly missed out on his first career victory, falling on the first playoff hole to William Sides of SMU. The Cowboy freshman and Sides were the only two players in the field to finish under par, with both tallying 1-under totals of 209.
Fahlberg-Johnsson fired a closing 66 to climb the leaderboard. His outward nine featured three birdies against no bogeys for a 3-under 32. His lone bogey of the day came at the 11th before he bounced back with birdies at the 13th and 17th holes to get to his 4-under total for the day.
