Bullard senior Nicholas Mouser wins 76th annual Len Ross Memorial junior tournament

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- The final round of the 76th Len Ross Memorial junior tournament came to an end Thursday at Fort Washington Country Club.

Nicholas Mouser, a Bullard senior and CSU San Marcos commit, won the title with a four-day total of +9 to win by three shots.

"I had a three-shot lead over Steven (Rivera), he's a really good player and a good friend of mine. I knew it was going to be a battle, and it was. It was a battle to the end," Mouser said. "I'm pretty proud. I was struggling for most of the day and to finish like that, that was pretty nice."

Future Bulldog Steven Rivera came into day three behind but cut the lead to 1 after a birdie on 16.

He finished with a matching 75 (+12 for the tournament).

James Watney tied the tournament low posting a final round 67 to finish in third place at +13.

For the girls, Asterisk Talley and Lauren Allainz were in the lead but both were disqualified for a rules infraction.

That means Fresno State commit Vunnisa Vu wins the title for the second time in three years.
