Team Results
  • Rhode Island sat atop the leaderboard after the first round of play, combining for a team score of 282.
  • The Rams finished the second round in 287 strokes to drop into third place with a two-round score of 569 (+9).
  • Delaware leads the field with a 1-over score of 561 (285-276), and is followed by second-place Drexel at +5 (286-279=565).
  • The only other Atlantic 10 team competing is Saint Joseph's, which will enter the final day of competition in ninth place (+44).
Individual Results
  • Junior Bryson Richards and redshirt senior Brandon Gillis are tied for second place at 3-under. Both golfers shot a 68 in the first round and a 69 in the second round.
  • Gillis had nine birdies on the day, tops among the field of 45.
  • Richards led the field in pars made, with 29.

  • Sophomore Jack Tegan will enter Tuesday's final round in 34th place. He carded a 74 in the morning, but finished the day with a 79 for a combined score of 153 (+13)
  • Redshirt senior Jordan Brajcich is two strokes behind Tegan, tied for 36th overall at +15 (78-77=155).
Head Coach Gregg Burke Said
  • As well as Brandon and Bryson played, they hit it even better. But at the end of the day you are what you shoot.
  • We had three players as a group that finished at 2-under for the day, and the other two combined to shoot 28-over. 
  • We had three players in the top-10 and are still eight back.
  • In the final 11 holes, the five players combined for just three birdies.
  • While all those stats sound negative, I see it as opportunity to pick up a lot of ground tomorrow. Tomorrow will say a lot about who we are.
What's Next
The Rams return to Radnor Valley Country Club for the final round of the Wildcat Fall Invitational on Tuesday morning.
