GARRETT ROWLAND bettered his Round 1 score by three strokes to finish as the leading Lion on the links for Round 2. The first nine holes were where Rowland excelled finishing two under par through the front half of the day.

PC finished Round 2 with a team score of 617, scoring one stroke higher in Round 2 than the previous day. The course proved tough in Round 2 for the field but the Lions stayed on pace and played with consistency to improve to 8th place. 

JAKE FORBES landed an impressive up and down par to get the Lions past Hanover College on his last hole.

Standout Performances
--GARRETT ROWLAND led the way in round two with his 74 to post a team-best 151 in the two-day event, the second time he led the team at an event after finishing with a 150 at the Tunica Invitational to start the fall.
--NICK SCOTT shot a 79 in round two finishing the fall with no round in the 80's as he posted a 155 in the tourney tied with JAKE FORBES for 2nd on the team list.

Coach's Corner
--JP Kircher on today's round - "The guys played very well today.  I was happy to see them finish in front of a strong program like Hanover (50th in Golf Stat Rankings) as well as a conference opponent in Averett. The course played a stroke and a half harder for the field, and the guys showed me a lot today by staying consistent with where we were after day 1. We played the tough holes well which gives us confidence heading into the offseason.  Each one of the guys had really good stretches of simple golf this week where they were able to eliminate stress and get the ball in the hole quickly."
