Sebastian Desoisa leads the Ducks at 7-under, tied for third individually as he looks to recapture the magic of his freshman season when he claimed his first collegiate title on the same course a year ago. Coming off a share of his first collegiate victory last week, Adam Anderson sits tied for 13th at 4-under, while Ramil Saelim rounds out Oregon's three golfers in the top 20 at 2-under.

HOW IT HAPPENED
Desoisa began his opening round on hole 11, making birdies on the 13th and 14th holes before a bogey on 15 and a double bogey on the par-3 second dropped him to 1-over. The sophomore responded with an eagle on the par-5 fourth hole and four birdies over his final six holes, including three straight to close the round at 5-under 67, tied for third. Desoisa opened his second round with a double bogey on 11 before playing his next 16 holes bogey-free with six birdies. A double bogey on his final hole left him with a 2-under 70, keeping him tied for third at 7-under.

Anderson played his opening nine holes bogey-free with one birdie after teeing off on hole 11. The sophomore showcased the range of his game with three birdies over a four-hole stretch from holes 2-5, converting on a par 3, par 4 and par 5. After a bogey on the sixth hole, Anderson made two more birdies over his final three holes to finish the opening round tied for third at 5-under 67. He followed with a 1-over 73 in the afternoon, recording an eagle on the 13th hole and a birdie on 18, but struggled to maintain his opening-round momentum as four bogeys dropped him 10 spots into a tie for 13th at 4-under.
