Castro had two holes that he especially struggled on

For sophomore Hayden Ogle and freshman David Castro, it was the second time they had seen the course this season, although the first time was not one to remember: As a team, the Chiefs nearly shot 400, their worst performance of the season.Both improved Masters Career Of Schwartzel upon their first trip, with Ogle's 79 putting him in position to make a charge at a state berth with a solid second round. Castro shaved 12 strokes off the 97 he carded earlier this year, with an 85.Ogle took an unorthodox approach to a par on the 18th, but a 20-foot par putt saved him and kept him in the 70s in round one. He sits in 16th, just six shots behind Burleson's Colby Webb, who fired a first-round 73."I gained a lot from having played it before. Most of these guys haven't played out here," Ogle said. "I feel really good going into Day 2. I am hitting the ball really well."Castro had two holes that he especially struggled on — the same two holes that most of the field had difficulty with: No. 9 and No. 17. The freshman started his day on the back nine, carding an 8-over 43.

Nine of those strokes came on the 17th, which he quadruple-bogeyed. After the difficulty, he rallied back in a big way over the next several holes.Castro knocked two straight approaches to within feet of the cup on 18 and 1, allowing him to make a pair of pars.Then came the shot of Castro's round.On the 564-yard par-5 second hole, Castro hit two solid shots, leaving him 80 yards from the green.Then he nearly holed his approach, which rolled just eight inches past the cup. The tap-in birdie pulled him back to 7 over and gave him momentum he carried until No. 6.At that point of his final nine, he was one-under, and seven over for the round. In those last four shots, he gave back the birdie and bogeyed No. 7 and No. 8.
