The Aggie Invitational featured a format with each team playing six players and counting the low five scores toward its cumulative team score. Texas shot a 5-over 365 in Sunday's final round and concluded the 12-team event in fifth place at 12-over for the tournament. Host Texas A&M claimed the team title at 38-under par. Oklahoma State took second at 17-under par, and Texas Tech placed third at 13-under par. San Diego State took fourth at 7-over par. Texas A&M's Jordan Russell took medalist honors at 10-under par.
Frittelli (Pretoria, South Africa) scattered birdies at the second, eighth, 10th, 15th and 18th holes en route to his 2-under 70. Frittelli tied for 18th overall with a 1-under 215 for the tournament. Hudson (Memphis, Tenn.) sank two birdies on the day on his way to his 1-under 71. Hudson tied for 23rd place at even-par.
Freshman Cody Gribble (Dallas, Texas) scattered three birdies and finished with an even-par 72 on the day. Gribble nailed down his sixth top-10 finish in 10 starts, as he tied for eighth at 4-under par. Senior Charlie Holland (Dallas, Texas) carded a 3-over 75 in round three and tied for 38th overall.
Freshman Johnathan Schnitzer (Houston, Texas), whose individual score did not count toward the team score Sunday, shot an 8-over 80 and finished in a tie for 64th place at 15-over par. Senior Lance Lopez (Missouri City, Texas) carded a 56-over 77 in round three and finished in 71st place at 19-over for the tournament.
Texas begins play at the Big 12 Championships on Friday, April 23 at Whispering Pines Golf Club in Trinity, Texas.
POST-ROUND COMMENTS
Texas head coach John Fields
"We had solid tournaments from Cody Gribble and Dylan Frittelli. Cody had another top-10 finish, and Dylan and Bobby Hudson played solid golf. We just need more production from the back end of the team for us to be as competitive as we would like. This was a week that shows us what we need to do the rest of the year. We need to get those who have been inconsistent and really focus in on what we know they can do."
