University of Arkansas golfer Mateo Fernandez de Oliveira shot a 15-under-par 198 to win the Hal Williams Collegiate on Tuesday at Magnolia Grove Crossings Golf Course in Mobile Ala.
Fernandez de Oliveira’s 54-hole performance of 198 was his best by seven strokes and the second-best in school history behind Julian Perico’s 197 (13 under) in the 2018 Jerry Pate Intercollegiate tournament. He had a final-round 65, matching his first-round total.
Arkansas finished second with a 23-under 829 thanks to three top-15 finishers — Fernandez de Oliveira, Perico and Manuel Lozada.
Illinois won the team title with a 36-under 816. The Razorbacks finished ahead of Kansas State (839) and Southern Miss (844).
Perico tied for sixth place (7-under 206) and Lozada came in a tie for 15th place (3-under 210).
Also for the Razorbacks, Christian Castillo (2-over 215) tied for 34th place and Matthew Gribbs (4-over 217) was in a tie for 48th place.
