March 1, 2010
AUSTIN, Texas -- A victory at last week’s Puerto Rico Classic has elevated Texas to the No. 3 spot in the latest Golfstat head-to-head team rankings and No. 4 in the Golfweek/Sagarin performance index. Texas, who defeated No. 1 Oklahoma State by six strokes in last week’s Puerto Rico Classic, also was selected as Golfweek’s National Men’s Team of the Week on Monday after winning the 15-team event in Puerto Rico and placing all five starters among the top-20 finishers, including three in the top-seven. Freshman Cody Gribble (Dallas, Texas), who notched his second runner-up finish of the season in Puerto Rico, moved up to No. 13 in the Golfweek/Sagarin individual performance rankings. Gribble boasts four top-three finishes in six starts this season. Sophomore Dylan Frittelli (Pretoria, South Africa) moved up to No. 24 in the Golfweek/Sagarin rankings after notching his third top-five finish of the season in Puerto Rico. Junior Bobby Hudson (Memphis, Tenn.), who finished in a tie for seventh place in Puerto Rico, ranks 44th in the Golfweek/Sagarin individual rankings. Texas resumes play on Friday, March 12 at the Southern Highlands Collegiate Invitational in Las Vegas, Nev.
