NORMAN, Okla. — The Washington men's golf team combined to shoot 2-over-par 286 Thursday at the NCAA Norman Regional and sits tied with St. Mary's for fourth, seven shots off the lead.

The top five teams and one individual from a non-advancing squad after 54 holes move on to the NCAA championship.

"There is concern until we finish the tournament and we're in the top five," Huskies coach Matt Thurmond said. "I'm concerned about where we are at, no question, but you don't worry at this point at what place you're in. ... What really matters is how far out of first we are."

Freshman Cheng-Tsung Pan led the Huskies' charge, shooting a bogey-free 3-under 69 to stand three strokes off the lead in a tie for fifth.

Teammates Trevor Simsby (70) is tied for 10th, Chris Williams (73) tied for 27th, Charlie Hughes (74) tied for 35th, and Ty Chambers (78) tied for 64th.

Other golf

The Western Washington men's season came to an end as the team stood ninth after three days of stroke play, one shot short of advancing at the NCAA Division II championship in Louisville, Ky.

On the last hole of Thursday's round, a chance to tie for eighth and force a playoff rode on a 6-foot birdie putt by Dylan Goodwin that barely missed. Goodwin had birdied two of the previous three holes.

The Vikings finished with a round of 296 for a 54-hole total of 874. Central Missouri was eighth at 873.
