Taken from ajga.org:

Hie, also a first-team selection, cruised to a 2 & 1 victory over No. 2 seed Rickie Fowler of Murrieta, Calif.

Hie, a member of the victorious 2005 West Canon Cup Team, followed his morning win with a 5 & 4 victory over Mu Hu of Shen Zhen, China. Hie credited his strong play to his hot putter in both the morning and afternoon matches. Hie will take on Tadd Fujikawa of Honolulu, Hawaii, who defeated Spencer Cole in the round of 16.

“I had 37 putts yesterday, so I made some adjustments last night,” Hie said. “Today, I putted really well and made everything I looked at,” he added. “I did not miss a putt from inside 10 feet today.”

Rory officially committed to the University of Southern California (USC) on Wednesday, November 9, 2005. He will be attending USC in the Fall of 2006.
