Moore ended the tournament in a tie for first place with Martin Trainer of Southern California, after shooting a final round even-par 70. Both players finished the tournament at 5-under and battled intensely through seven playoff holes, setting a record for playoff holes in the 52 year history of the Pac-10 Championship, according to OSUbeavers.com.
On the seventh playoff hole Moore hit a tree with his tee-shot, leading to a bogey, while Trainer was able to tap in for a routine par and one up Moore for the title.
Sophomore Nick Sherwood finished the tournament in a tie for 25th place at 8-over,Sophomore Dave Fink finished in a tie for 35th with a score of 12-over, and juniors Jonnie Motomochi and Casey King shot 21-over and 23-over, finishing in 51st and 53rd place respectively. Sophomore Jeff Petroff rounded out the Beaver scoring be recording a 25-over total and ended in a tie for 56th.
Moore's finish ranks as one of the all-time bests by an OSU golfer at the Pac-10 Championship, though a Beaver still has yet to win the title. Moore will get another shot next year when the Championship is held at Oregon State's home course, Trysting Tree. Until then he turns his focus to Regionals and, possibly, Nationals.
