Desoisa Goes Low to Open Cal Poly Invite
10/27/25 | Men's Golf
CARMEL, Calif. – Freshman Sebastian Desoisa leads the field after two rounds of play at the Preserve Golf Club, with the Oregon lineup sitting in a tie for third place after play was suspended due to darkness.
Oregon opened with a 10-under 278 as a team and sat at second on the leaderboard after 18 holes. After a 9-under 257 in Monday's second round, the Ducks remain in a promising position to close out their fall season. Senior Jay Gould-Healy remains just outside the top ten with three holes left to play in round two.
"The guys played well today. It has been a tough fall for us, but today we got some putts to drop," said head coach Casey Martin. "Amazing to watch Seb [Desoisa] play. He was flawless all day, very encouraging."
How It Happened
The Ducks came out strong to open the tournament, sitting just three strokes behind the lead after the first round.
Desoisa opened play on hole No. 9, shooting four birdies and five pars on the back half of the course. Three more birdies and an eagle on hole No. 8 gave the freshman the top scorecard in the tournament with an 8-under 64 in the first round.
The score marked Desoisa's best collegiate round, equaling the No. 4 low round to par and No. 13 low round in Oregon's program history. The last Duck to shoot 8-under was Owen Avrit at the Mirabel Maui Jim Intercollegiate in 2024.
Gould-Healy and Aiden Krafft each carded a 1-under 71 in the first round after teeing off on the fifth hole. Gould-Healy had four birdies to counter three bogeys, while Krafft shot a pair of birdies. In a strong second round, Gould-Healy made six birdies and eight pars, moving up 15 spots on the leaderboard with three holes remaining and Krafft ended up 1-over with three holes left as well.
Tim Chang rounded out the counting scores for the Ducks with three birdies to score an even mark in the first round. Chang had a birdie in round two, ending the round 3-over with two holes left to play. Oscar Lent finished with a 3-over 75 in round one, before two birdies and an eagle resulted in an even second round.
Competing as an individual, Jeffrey Kwak made five birdies with just one bogey to end the first round in third place 4 strokes under par. Kwak had another four birdies in round two, but an equal number of bogeys and a double bogey on the back nine set him at two over in the second round with one hole left to play in the second round.
