De La Fuente fired three straight rounds in the 60s and captured the individual championship at 10-under 200 for his second individual crown in 2022-23.
This season, Fuente leads the Cougars with a 70.34 scoring average, which ranks as the second-best single-season mark in program history. The Guadalajara, Mexico, native also tops Houston with 25 rounds of par or better, including 13 in the 60s, and opened the spring season by winning the Border Olympics individual title at Laredo Country Club on Feb. 13-14.
