WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. — Patrick Fishburn finished tied for 13th individually, while BYU men's golf took 12th place in the Southwestern Jones Invitational, Tuesday.

"The guys were determined to shoot under par today as a team, "BYU Director of Golf Todd Miller said. "They were very close to getting it done. It was one of our best team scores of the year on a tough course. Patrick (Fishburn) didn't have his best tournament, but he found a way to shoot some good scores. I was proud of the way Spencer (Dunaway) bounced back after shooting 80 the first round."

Fishburn finished the tournament at even par. He shot three-under-par in the first round, four-over-par in the second and shot one-under-par in Round 3. Fishburn birdied three holes in today’s round and also eagled the 15th hole. His 13th-place finish makes for his fourth top-20 finish of the 2015-16 season.

Spencer Dunaway concluded the event tied for 40th place at nine-over-par. Dunaway shot even par in today’s round of 18 and birdied three holes on the day.

The Cougars placed 12th overall. The team shot a total score of 896 (+32) through the tournament’s two days of play. BYU shot 291 today, its lowest round of the event. The Cougars were close to shooting under par today as the team was two-under-par with three holes left in today's round. BYU finished the round at three-over-par.
