Manhattan sophomore Scott Woods had a great day in Thursday's 12-school Washburn Rural Invitational at Shawnee Golf Club, shooting an even-par 71 to take medalist honors.
But playing in cold, wet conditions, Woods was ready to get the round behind him.
AUGUSTA, Ga. - Tiger Woods couldn't see the green through the trees, though that was only a minor obstacle. He choked up on a 5-wood and played a sweeping draw around the pines, over the water and onto the back of the green.

AUGUSTA, Ga. - For a minute, Gary Woodland thought Butch Harmon was simply messing with him. When the rising PGA Tour star met with renowned golf teacher to begin their work together in January, Harmon laid everything out to his newest pupil in one simple phrase: "We're going to change everything."
Woodland tied for 66th
LOS ANGELES - Gary Woodland shot a 3-over 74 on Saturday to drop to a tie for 66th after three rounds of the PGA Tour Northern Trust Open.
Woodland, a Topeka native, came undone on holes 4 and 5. On No.
Backhoes, bulldozers and open trenches aren't exactly welcome sights when it comes to golf courses.
But at Shawnee Country Club and Cypress Ridge Golf Course, they are a sign of progress.
Following his first event of the 2012 season on the PGA Tour, Gary Woodland immediately went to work with his new swing coach.
The Topekan has joined Butch Harmon and flew to Las Vegas after playing in the Tournament of Champions in Kapalua, Hawaii.
