A sizzling back nine, set off by a couple of eagles from freshman Julian Perico, got the No. 31 Arkansas men’s golf team off to a hot start as the Razorbacks went off from the No. 10 tee at the NCAA Austin Regional.
Arkansas had a team score of 8 under par early in the round before settling for a 2 under and fourth place after Monday’s opening round at the University of Texas Golf Club.
Host and No. 6 Texas shared the first-round lead with No. 18 Pepperdine at 6 under, followed by No. 30 TCU at 4 under on the par 71 course.
