Fujikawa misses cut in debut

A second-round 74 left Hawaii’s Tadd Fujikawa on the wrong side of the cut in his NGA Hooters Tour debut.

The Moanalua High School graduate took triple-bogey on the fourth hole and it cost him yesterday at the Killearn Country Club Classic in Tallahassee, Fla. His two-day total of 2-over-par 146 left him tied for 93rd. The top 65 and ties move on to play the weekend.

The leader at the halfway point is Alabama’s Lee Williams at 69–131. The cut came at 143.

Fujikawa, 20, is scheduled to play in the second stop on the tour’s Pro Series next week. The Harley-Davidson of Ocala Classic tees off Thursday at Golden Hills Golf and Turf Club in Florida.

Seasiders cruise in tennis

The Brigham Young-Hawaii women’s tennis team dropped a single game in six matches to sweep Northwestern College last night in Laie.

Not to be outdone, the BYUH men’s team beat Northwestern twice yesterday, sweeping both of them 9-0.
