  1. UL Golf The Book: Ragin' Cajuns Golf 2006-07 Sun Belt Champs

    Jump to Sun Belt Championships Day 1= 3rd place | Day 2=2nd | Day 3=T-1st


    start of 2006-07 Regular Season


    LANTANA, Texas - Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns men’s golf team kicked off the 2005-06 golf season at the 2006 Cobb/Ferrell Mean Green Classic, hosted by fellow Sun Belt Conference member North Texas. The Cajuns battled a field of 14 schools and the elements to finish the first round in 11th place.

    Inclement weather in the area delayed play in the opening round for nearly 90-minutes. The second round was halted due to the weather.

    Collectively the Cajuns carded a 299 first round score, just 16 strokes behind the tournament leader Washington State. Tournament host North Texas is in a tie for sixth place, just seven strokes ahead of UL.

    The weather hampered the Ragin’ Cajuns as only one member of the team was able to shoot a score below par. Michael Smith, who led UL in stroke average last year, managed to break par and card an opening round 70 (-2). Smith as consistent, shooting 35 on both the front and back nine.

    The Ragin’ Cajuns other golfers all struggled on the first nine holes of the day, but rebounded on the back nine. With the exception of Smith, who was consistent on all 18 holes, each of the UL golfers improved their scores on the back nine.

    Freshman Kyle Pritchard carded a front nine score of 39, but finished the back nine with a 36 to finish three strokes over par with a 75. His score put him in a tie for 33rd.

    Junior Morgan Landry and freshman Devin Carrey both shot a 40 on the opening nine holes, but lowered their scores to finish out the round. Landry shot a 36, just two shots better than Carrey, to tie for 40th. Carrey’s 78 was good enough for a tie for 61st.

    Rounding out the scoring for UL was B.C. Thibeaux and Thomas Disch. The duo both carded team high 82s to finish the day in a tie for 71st.

    The Ragin’ Cajuns will resume second round play at 8 a.m. on Tuesday morning with the final round immediately following.

    We actually have some really good players on the team. They just aren't putting up good scores in tournaments. They are all relatively young guys with a lot of talent. Look for them to get better as the year goes on.


  4. UL Golf Ragin' Cajuns Golf Seventh at Kansas Invitational


      LAWRENCE, Kan.-Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns men’s golf team concluded play on Day One at the Kansas Invitational, and after two rounds, the Cajuns finished the day in seventh place.

    One of the main reasons for the Cajuns’ success in the first two rounds was freshman Devin Carrey. He posted an opening round 73 to pace the Cajuns. In the second round, Carrey improved his stroke total to shoot a one-under par 71. His two round even par performance ties him for fourth on the overall leaderboard.

    As a team, the Cajuns posted an opening round score of 306 to finish the round in a tie for 13th place. In the following round, UL rebounded and shot 10 strokes better as a team. Their 296 in the second round moved the Cajuns into seventh place overall in the 16-team tournament.

  5. UL Golf Bass, Cajuns prepare for Battle on the Bend


      It's year two of the "Battle on the Bend," and UL golf coach Bob Bass is hoping for a successful follow-up to last year's inaugural event.

    But Bass and the organizers for the event, scheduled Saturday-Tuesday at the stunning Cypress Bend Resort on the banks of Toledo Bend, will have to go a long way to improve on the first year.

    "For a first-time event, it went very well," Bass said of last year's tournament. "We got a lot of complimentary letters back from teams that were there, and the folks at Cypress Bend said they had a lot of people come back after they got a chance to see what was available there."

  7. UL Golf Coach Bass has high hopes for Ragin' Cajuns


      It's three weeks until Bob Bass opens his 18th spring as coach of UL's golf team, and the Ragin' Cajun squad has six tournaments before it heads to the Sun Belt Conference Championships.

    But Bass already is thinking about the league tournament, and not just because it gives his team a trip to Disney World. He's thinking about his team doing something that's only been done once in conference history.

    Only once has a team finished ninth in the league tournament one season and won the title the next, but Bass said his squad has a chance to do that - and he may be right.

    Two former all-conference players, senior Peter Badawy and junior Justin Lowe, return after absences. Badawy was injured in an auto accident and missed all of last season and last fall, while Lowe was ineligible for the fall schedule.

  8. UL Golf Ragin' Cajuns finish 1 stroke out of 1st place at GUADALAJARA

    Ragin’ Cajuns Golf Finishes Third at Guadalajara Intercollegiate


    GUADALAJARA, Mexico-Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns golf team kicked off the spring season with a third place finish at the Guadalajara Intercollegiate in Guadalajara, Mexico. The Cajuns fell just one-stroke shy of tying Houston and Indiana for first place.

    The Cajuns used rounds of 308, 290 and 299 for a combined team score of 897, just one stroke off the pace.

    Junior Morgan Landry paced the Cajuns, finishing in a tie for fifth in the tournament. Landry finished six over par for the tournament.

    Joining Landry in the top-10 was Justin Lowe. The junior rebounded from an opening round 81 to shoot a three-under par round of 69 on day one. In the final round of the tournament, Lowe carded a 75 to finish just three strokes back of Landry in a tie for 10th.

    In his first action in over a year, Peter Badawy made an immediate impact for the Cajuns. He was consistent shooting rounds of 75, 74 and 77 respectively. For his efforts, Badawy placed in a tie for 13th.

    Rounding out the top five for the Cajuns were Devin Carrey and Michael Smith.

    Carrey finished the tournament in a tie for 23rd after shooting rounds of 76, 74 and 80 respectively.

    Smith, the Cajuns top performer from the 2005-06 season and the fall, had an uncharacteristic tournament. The junior improved each round, but rounds of 81 and 79 on day one were too much to overcome. He did post the second best round for the Cajuns on day two when he shot a 74.

    The Ragin’ Cajuns golf team will continue play this fall as they travel to Houston, Texas on Feb. 26-27 to take part in the All-American Intercollegiate hosted by the University of Houston.

  11. UL Golf Carrey moves Cajuns to third


      Devin Carrey had been waiting for Monday for a long time - ever since he joined UL's golf team this year.

    The Ragin' Cajuns had been waiting for a round like Monday afternoon, and because of that, the hosts are in striking position heading into the final day of the Louisiana Class-ics tournament at Oakbourne Country Club.

    Buoyed by the stellar six-under-par score of Carrey, the Cajuns posted an eight-under-par 280 score in Monday's second round and finished the day with a seven-under 569 score. UL is in third place in the 15-team field and is seven strokes back of front-running Southeastern Louisiana.

    The Cajuns were in fifth place after Monday's morning round before Carrey's afternoon effort that included six birdies and no bogeys.

      LAREDO, Texas - One of the oldest and most tradition-rich collegiate golf tournaments in the Southwest opens play today, with the UL squad in the field for the annual Border Olympics at Laredo Country Club.

  14. UL Golf UL golf loses in playoff


      BOSSIER CITY - UL's golf team came within a shot of defending its team title, but the Ragin' Cajuns lost in a playoff for top honors Tuesday in the Hal Sutton Intercollegiate tournament at the Golf Course at StoneBridge.

    The Cajuns tied with La. Tech for the team title at 15-over-par 879, and the Bulldogs won a team playoff on the first hole. UL had won the Hal Sutton title in the 2006 spring season for its only victory on the 2005-06 schedule.

    "We just counted a couple of numbers that we couldn't afford to count today," said UL coach Bob Bass. "We should have won it outright, but you get yourself into a playoff like that and anything can happen."

    UL shot two-under as a five-man team on the playoff hole, the 398-yard par-four first hole, but Tech followed with a three-under score as a team to claim the title.
