Barry back in action, this for Beavers
Mike Barry is finally getting the chance to wear Beaver colors and play for Oregon State University. The former North Medford High state champion was in ninth place Monday through two rounds of the Giustina Memorial Classic at the Beavers’ home course, Trysting Tree in Corvallis.
Barry had back-to-back rounds of 71 Sunday and Monday for a 2-under 142 entering today’s final round. OSU is in second place, four shots behind Washington State and four strokes ahead of Oregon in the 10-team event. Barry is playing as the Beavers’ No. 3, but only Diego Velasquez (138) is ahead of him among teammates. Leader Trent Sanders of Washington State is at 136.
Barry transferred from San Diego, where he played in the fall of 2007, to OSU, enrolling in the spring of 2008. He had to sit out that spring and all of last year, leaving him 2009-10 to compete as a senior.
