Huang's -11 Leads Men's Golf At Hamptons Intercollegiate
October 03, 2023 | Men's Golf
Results
It was a record-breaking performance on both an individual and team level at the Hamptons Intercollegiate for the Princeton men's golf team. William Huang shot under par in all three of his rounds at the Hamptons Intercollegiate, firing off a three-day total of 205 (70-66-69) to finish in third place at -11 which sets a new school record for a low round to par at a 54-hole event -- surpassing the -10 Huang shot at the 2021 Princeton Invitational.
The 278 carded by the Tigers in the second round established a new modern-day program record for team score in relation to par at -10, besting the -9 shot by the Tigers in the third round of the 2005 Ivy League Championship. It is tied for the fifth-lowest team total for a single round in program history.
Huang's play helped the Tigers to a fifth place finish overall at -8 as a group with a three-day total of 856 (291-278-287). Only five teams were under par collectively at the tournament, led by Alabama which posted a team score of -24. Ohio State (-21) and UCLA (-20) were in a tight battle for second and third, respectively while Virginia (-10) was just ahead of the Tigers. In terms of the four Ivy schools who competed, Princeton was the highest-finishing team, well ahead of Yale (+6), Harvard (+27) and Penn (+30).
Huang, the 2022 Ivy League Rookie of the Year and a two-time All-Ivy selection, posted a new career-low round with his six-under 66 in Round Two on Monday. After bogeying the first hole, he birdied seven of the final 17 -- including six birdies on the back nine. He would finish the 54 holes of the event with 18 total birdies.
Jackson Fretty also shot a 66 in the second round, matching the 66 he shot at the Ivy League Championships for his career low round. The pair of 66s from Huang and Fretty marked the first time in modern program history -- dating back to 1993-94 -- that two Tigers show 66 or lower in the same round,
The -6 second rounds from Huang and Fretty tie the modern program record for low round to par -- the seventh and eighth rounds of -6 by Princeton players since 93-94.
