LIHUE, Hawaii – The California men’s golf team will look to climb the John A. Burns Intercollegiate standings over the final 36 holes of play after carding an 18-over-par 298 in the first round Thursday at Ocean Course Hokuala.

Cal ended the opening round in 15th place, while Utah (-7), UNLV (E), Illinois (E), BYU (+1) and New Mexico (+2) rounded out the top five on the team leaderboard.
