BOWLING GREEN, Ky. --- Stephan Jaeger (Munich, Germany)
moved into a tie for first and Steven Fox (Hendersonville, Tenn.) set a course
record for the Chattanooga Mocs men's golf team at the NCAA Bowling Green
Regional Friday. Chattanooga is third overall after today's seven-under par
281.
Fox fired an eight-under par 64. The round included a
perfect card with eight birdies and 10 pars. It broke the Club at Olde Stone
record set by Chattanooga area native Luke List. He jumped from a tie for 35th
into fourth at four-under par 140.
That puts Fox three shots off the lead. There is a tie at
the top between Jaeger and UCLA's Pedro Figueiredo at minus seven. Jaeger's
topsy-turvy 67 gives him a 36-hole total of 137. His card included an eagle,
eight birdies, five bogeys and just four pars.
Liam Johnston (Dumfries, Scotland) and Chris Robb
(Aberdeenshire, Scotland) rounded out the team score shooting 74 and 76,
respectively. Davis Bunn (Knoxville, Tenn.) had the drop score with an 83. Robb
is third on the team with a total of 148 (+4) followed by Johnston (151) and
Bunn (159).
No. 3 UCLA leads with a five-under tally of 571 shooting
287 (-1) in round two. No. 15 Texas A&M edged ahead of UTC at minus three
powered by today's 278 (-10). Chattanooga is third at 575 with Memphis (582)
and Virginia Tech (583) rounding out the top five.
The top five teams advance to the NCAA Championship. UTC
has a 12-shot cushion over the sixth-place duo of Colorado State and
Northwestern.
Bunn opens the final round for the Mocs at 8:40 a.m. Johnston (8:50), Robb
(9:00), Fox (9:10) and Jaeger (9:20) follow as UTC is paired with the Bruins
and Aggies. Live scoring can be accessed on GoMocs.com on the men's golf
