DAY ONE RESULTS

FLEMING ISLAND, FLA. – Carson-Newman junior Dalton Reese (Warrenton, Ga. tied his career-low round with a second round 65 at the Spring Kickoff Intercollegiate hosted by Lincoln Memorial and the Eagles are tied for second after Monday's two rounds of the event at The Golf Club at Fleming Island Plantation in Fleming Island, Fla.

After shooting a two-over 73 during his first 18 holes of the day, the Georgian shot a six-under 65, which was the lowest score of the round, to move to fourth on the leaderboard.

"Our team did not play well in teh first round; we seemed rusty after the winter break," coach Randy Wylie said. "In the second round, we bounced back with the lowest round of anyone in the field. Dalton Reese played particularly well finishing the second round with a stellar 65."

Reese opened the second round with a score of six-under through the first five holes, which featured four birdies and an eagle on the par-five 18. He finished the day with eight birdies and one eagle.

Freshman Jake Headrick (Maryville, Tenn.) is tied for eighth after posting back-to-back one-under 70s during his first 36 holes. Headrick's first round 70 was his first below-par score in five rounds of play. The freshman shot seven birdies.

Senior Nicklaus Kennedy (London, Ontario, Canada) recorded from a four-over 75 during the first round to shoot a two-over 73 during the second round to tie for 25^th. Kennedy opened his second round with birdies on three of his first four holes, but three straight bogeys held the Canadian from finishing Monday below par. His two round total sits at 147.

Freshman Grant Bodie (Newport, Tenn.) shot an even-par 71 during his first collegiate round of golf but followed with a seven-over 78 to tie for 34^th. Bodie opened his career in the Orange and Blue with a birdie on the par-three 17^th and finished the first round with four birdies. His second round featured seven bogeys but four more birdies salvaged his 78.

Senior Andrew Hall (Knoxville, Tenn.) shot consecutive 75s for a two-round total of 150 and a tie for 38^th. Hall opened with his spring with a birdie on the par-four 14 but a triple-bogey on the par-five 16 put him behind the scorecard. Hall's 75s are the two highest scores during the senior's season.

Senior Jace Devault (Bluff City, Tenn.) shot a 76 during the first round and followed with a 77 during the second round for an 11-over 153 and a tie for 59^th. Devault finished his second round with two birdies in his last five holes for the six-over 77.

Host LMU sits in seventh and is 14 strokes off the lead. North Greenville's Christian Constance leads the field by four strokes over Palm Beach's David Lui.
