Kluver shot a final round 7-under 64 to shoot 18-under, the fifth lowest to par score in Sooner history.
This year's Ka'anapali Collegiate Classic had a bigger meaning than just the golf that was played.
While the golf was entertaining and captivating, the money raised for victims of the Maui Wildfires was more important.
In partnership with 501(c)3 organizations Spare for Change and Member for a Day, the Classic raised money throughout the tournament to directly benefit Maui's wildfire victims, including Ka'anapali Golf Courses' own associates who lost everything.
The campaign has no minimum donation and no cost to register. Here's how you can help:

2) Donate the dollar amount of your choice for each birdie and eagle made by the team of your choice.
Many fans have pledged to match a dollar amount of their choice for each birdie made to support Maui's wildfire victims.
