EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. –Â
Emilio Arellano Llamas carded his second consecutive top-10 finish to lead Wichita State to a fifth-place team result at the SIUE Dolenc Invitational on Tuesday afternoon.
Â
In a tournament filled with low scores, the Shockers posted rounds of 275, 284, and 281 for an 840 (-12) team total. The score tied the 10th-best 54-hole mark in the history of Wichita State men's golf. The Shockers finished even par or better in all three rounds.
Â
Idaho won the event with an impressive 821 (-31), finishing 12 strokes clear of second place.
Â
The fifth-place finish in Edwardsville marked the second consecutive top-five team result for the Shockers, following last week's performance at the Git-R-Done Invitational.
Â
With his seventh-place finish, Llamas became the first Wichita State men's golfer to open his Shocker career with back-to-back top-10 finishes since Marcus Wochner in 2021. He has finished under par in five of his first six collegiate rounds.
Â
Jose Miguel Ramirez was the Shockers' second-highest finisher, tying for 23rd. He finished one stroke outside the top 20, ending a five-tournament streak of top-20 finishes dating back to last season.
Â
Mitchell Revie posted a Shocker career-best 67 in the second round. Competing as an individual,
Rhett O'Rear recorded his first under-par round with a 70 in the opening round and posted his best finish, tying for 51st.
