SANTA CRUZ, Calif. – The University of Hawai'i men's golf team completed play at the 69th The Transamerica/WFG Western Intercollegiate, Sunday with a 14th place finish at the famed Pasatiempo Golf Club.
 
The Rainbow Warriors completed the three rounds – and play-6-score-5 format – in 1,219 strokes, 167 behind team champion, Texas (1,052).
 
"On behalf of my team, I want to sincerely apologize for our embarrassing performance this week at the Western Intercollegiate, one of the most prestigious collegiate golf events in the country," head coach Ronn Miyashiro said. "As the head coach of this program, I take full responsibility for our play. I try everyday to instill in our players that when we step on the course, we will represent everyone at home to the best of our ability. That was not the case this week. We embarrassed ourselves, our school, our alumni and our families. Going forward, I will do everything in my power to make sure that this never happens again. We will work tirelessly to put out a product on the golf course that everyone can be proud of."
