Individual Results

  • Sophomore Jack Tegan was 2-over (74) for day, giving him a two-round score of 153 (+9). He will enter Tuesday's final round tied for 45th place – a 25-spot improvement from his first-round finish.

  • Redshirt senior Brandon Gillis is now tied for 19th overall at 5-over (73-76=149).
  • After tying for second in the opening round, sophomore Andrew DiPetrillo fell into a tie for 26th with a second-round 81. He is now six strokes over (69-81=150).
Head Coach Gregg Burke Said…
  • Our guys just battled all day. We were six over in the final two holes and those were great scores for the downpour we played in while all the other teams besides URI, Lafayette and Army were in the clubhouse.
  • Bryson shot three under, which puts him in contention, but the day belonged to Jack Tegan. I said a week ago that his scores were not where they would be. This is a kid the boys just love and we want him representing Rhody Golf.
  • We picked up 4,5, and 14 shots on the three teams closest to us.  That shows you how well we played.
  • Tomorrow is about focus and mental toughness. The course will be soaked and it will take tremendous concentration to shoot the red numbers we want.
What's Next
The Rams return to GreatHorse for the third and final round of the UConn Invitational on Tuesday morning.
