FORT WORTH – The top-ranked Oklahoma men's golf team used rounds of 273 (-7) and 290 (+10) to claim a share of second with Wake Forest on Monday at the Colonial Collegiate Invitational.
Ā 
Jaxon Dowell led the way in his collegiate debut, signing for a 67 (-3) and 72 (+2), good for a piece of fourth. The redshirt freshman is joined by redshirt senior Chris Gotterup, whose 68 (-2) and 71 (+1) moved him into a tie with the redshirt freshman following 36 holes at the par-70, 7,204-yard Colonial Country Club.
Ā 
As a team, the Sooners sit two shots back of first-place Pepperdine (+1, 561) and are five shots clear of fifth entering Tuesday's final round.
Ā 
Dowell opened his day with an opening-round 67, as he played the final 16 holes 4-under par to get into contention, followed by a second-round 72 (+2). The Edmond, Okla., product made the turn in round two as the solo leader and trails Michael Brennan (1, -6) of Wake Forest by five strokes.
Ā 
Joining Dowell inside the top five was Chris Gotterup (T4, -1), who is in line to notch his second top-five finish in as many tries. The All-American collected rounds of 68 (-2) and 71 (+1) Monday and shares fourth with the redshirt freshman.
Ā 
Logan McAllister closed the day with a birdie in his second round to card a pair of 71s (+1) and sits 18th with 18 holes to go. The senior was steady once again for OU, posting 24 pars on the day, second most for the Crimson and Cream.
Ā 
Drew Goodman (T31, +5) took an early lead Monday at Colonial, posting three consecutive birdies to open his week en route to a 67 (-3) in the morning. But a 78 (+8) in the afternoon wave pushed the freshman into a tie for 31st.
Ā 
Rounding out the Oklahoma lineup was Patrick Welch (72, +15).

The Sooners will look to defend their 2021 team title at Colonial Tuesday and secure the 45th program victory all-time. OU tees off Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. CT with Pepperdine and Wake Forest, with the final group going out at 10:06. Live scoring will be available on Golfstat.
