Tell the coach to be cautious in Cancun. It can be a dangerous place as can be Playa del Carmen and Cozumel as well. Sometimes pick-pockets or worse. We quit going there after loving it for a half a dozen trips. Good for Scuba diving when at Cozumel.

My golfing buddy here just got back from a month in Cancun--his 20th consecutive year there and has never had a problem. Played the course the guys are playing next week 6 or 7 times. He says the course was in fabulous condition.

The guys have teed off and are still even par and tied for 1st place. It's very early.

Defriend just takes a triple. Not looking good for the guys right now. Heusel and Defriend are +5, Johnson is +2, Jackson is -1 and Buisson doesn't have a score posted yet.

After 2 double bogeys Heusel comes back with an eagle and birdie on his next 2 holes. Jackson gets another birdie to go -2 and Buisson's scores are now posted at +3. Team is in 2nd place at +4 and one shot out of the lead. Jackson is tied for the individual lead.

Jackson's birdie has been changed to a bogey so we are +6 but only 2 shots behind VCU.

Drifting towards last place. Too many big scores. So far, 7 doubles, 3 triples and 1 quad. And we're only 13 out of 1stplace. Ridiculous.

Now I notice that Wichita St at +8, Northern Colorado at +14 and UT-Arlington at +19 all have 2 players who haven't posted a score, so they are all going to have over par scores added up soon. We are at +22 at the moment. It's possible that all 3 of those schools will be behind us soon.

As I suspected we finish in front of WSU, UTA and Northern Colorado and are T-3. The bad news is that it appears that Buisson has been disqualified, so we will play with possibly only 4 golfers the rest of the way. We brought Jaime Lewis as a 6th man but he shot 86 and don't think he can become our 5th man replacing Buisson. Maybe I'm reading the stats wrong. I hope so. Anyway we are 11 shots behind VCU for 1st place as round 2 begins. Jackson 74, Heusel 77, Johnson 78, Defriend 82.

Not sure if the men play another round today or not. Golfstat says round 2 begins tomorrow. I understood this was a 72 hole tourney (ACUSports.com) with 2 rounds Monday, one Tuesday and one Wednesday. We'll see. Also, golfstat has Buisson playing in Rd 2 so maybe I was all wet about the disqualification. Hope so.

The guys are not starting out well this morning. Heusel birdied his first hole but both Trenton Johnson and Charlie Jackson have a double bogey on their cards. The weather seems to be a little better than yesterday, mid-70's with a 15-20 mph wind. We've dropped to T-4.

After a good day yesterday, Charlie Jackson is having a disastrous day today--+8 thru 6 holes with 2 doubles and now a triple. Heusel has gone from -2 to +1. Buisson (who is playing today) has yet to post a score.

The inconsistency of this team makes me crazy. I know these courses are set up hard for the tourneys but I would sure like to see rounds with whole bunches of pars rather than triples followed by eagles.
