Reigning CGA Amateur champion Glenn Workman, playing in the next-to-last regular-season tournament of his college career, finished a career-best sixth Tuesday in the Wyoming Cowboy Classic in Chandler, Ariz.
Workman, a University of Wyoming senior from Pueblo West, went 68-68 in the last two rounds after opening with a 74. That gave him a 6-under-par 210 total, which left him five strokes behind individual champion Sean Meehan of Texas-San Antonio.
Workman (pictured), who won the state amateur stroke-play titles in both Colorado and Wyoming last summer, made six birdies and two bogeys in the final round on Tuesday.
The showing marked Workman’s first individual top-10 finish of his career in a major college tournament. The Coloradan was competing only as an individual this week in Arizona, but two teammates tied for third on Tuesday — John Murdock and Aaron Lickteig — both one stroke ahead of Workman.
Also posting a top-10 college finish on Tuesday was the University of Northern Colorado’s Nicole Polivchak, a freshman from Sarasota, Fla. Polivchak tied for seventh individually and helped spark UNC, which placed fifth out of a 16-team field at the Bobcat Spring Invitational in Goodyear, Ariz.
Polivchak went 74-73-74 for a 5-over-par 221 total, which put her eight strokes behind champion Tara Finigan of Portland State.
