NAPA, Calif. - Santa Clara men's golf turned in one of the top rounds in program history on Tuesday as they ascended from fifth to a runner-up finish at the Bridgestone Collegiate Invitational. The Broncos shot 17-under 271 in Tuesday's round at the par-72 Silverado Country Club, tied for the third-lowest in program history, and finished the event 29-under 835 - good for the seventh-best 54-hole score in program history.

Matt Robles, Tucker Sweeney and Calder Overfelt each shot 4-under par or better in the final round. Robles and Sweeney both finished inside the top five individually while Overfelt was just outside the top-10 with a 12th-place finish. 

ROUND HIGHLIGHTS:

• Tuesday's 17-under tied the team's third round performance at the season-opening Palouse Collegiate, as well as the 2013 Pacific Invitational for the third-lowest in program history.
• Robles finished in fourth place at 14-under 68-67-66--202, tied for the best finish of his collegiate career. The final tally was also the lowest of his career while the 6-under 66 final round tied his performance in the opening round of the Palouse Collegiate for the lowest of his season and career. 
• Robles' 14-under is tied for the third-lowest score to par in program history. He was bogey-free with six birdies - three on the front nine and three-straight on Nos. 16-18 on the back. 
• Robles now has 29 career rounds under par, moving him ahead of Jimmy Cacho (2006-09) for the eighth-most in program history. 
• Sweeney also finished inside the top five by tying for fifth at 7-under 70-72-67--209. It is the freshman's second-straight top-five finish after taking home medalist honors two weeks earlier at the Tim Tierney Pioneer Shootout. 
• Sweeney logged seven birdies in his final round to counter a pair of bogeys. 
• Overfelt finished just a shot behind Sweeney, but was pushed out of the top-10 due to a seven-way tie for fifth. The senior was 6-under 70-72-68--210 to climb six spots in the final round and tie for 12th - his third top-20 finish of the season and 12th of his career. 
• Emil Nielsen, playing as an individual, was the lone golfer among the field of 82 to tally shot even-par across the three rounds. He finished in sole possession of 40th place after rounds of 70, 75 and 71. 
• Kevin Hollomon and J.P. Odland both saw big improvements from Monday's second round to the final. Hollomon was 2-under 70, five strokes better than in the second round while Odland saw a six-stroke improvement with an even-par 72 in the final round. 
• As great as Santa Clara was, 27th-ranked BYU was even more impressive with a whopping 26-under 262 final round pushing them to a 54-under 810 final tally to run away with the team title. The Cougars had the top two individuals with Kihei Akina taking home medalist honors at 21-under 195 and Peter Kim finishing runner-up at 16-under 200. 
• UC Davis' Lequan Wang (201) finished one stroke better than Robles to take third place.
