SAMMAMISH, Wash. - Husky All-American Nick Taylor won the 16th Sahalee Players Championship on Friday after he shot a 1-over 73 to finish 6-under par (282) overall.

Nisbet was 3-over on Friday, while Olson was 5-over to finish second and third, respectively. Joining Taylor in the top 10 were Husky senior Richard Lee (Bellevue, Wash.) and former UW golfer Derek Berg, who both finished 2-over par and tied for eighth place.
