Last week we were ranked 13th, and we should be in the top 10 after this tourna- ment. " Arkansas won the tournament with a 54-hole team total of 903, 12 strokes ahead of runner-up Lamar.The Hogs shaved five shots off the tournament re- cord, 908, set by Ohio State last year. Coming off a record-setting victory at the Butler National Intercollegiate Golf Classic in Chicago, the Razorbacks con- tinued their winning ways in the first Prin- cess International Intercollegiate Tourna- ment in Acapulco, Mexico. The Hogs won the 10-team event handily, 23 strokes ahead of runner-up Rice. In the first round, Arkansas shot a team total of 283. In the second round, the Hogs carded 291, for a two-day total of two-under, 574. " This was the best team score since I ' ve been at the University of Arkansas, " Coach Loy said. " I was quite pleased. " Go- 4. ' -
