INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Junior Josh Kirkham is one shot off the lead in a tie for third at one-under 69, while Bradley Men's Golf finished the opening day at the Butler Spring Invitational fifth in the 12-team standings after posting the lowest team round in nearly a year.
Fresh off his career-best round of 67 to wrap up last week's Twin Oaks Intercollegiate, Kirkham fired a one-under 69 Monday at the par-70 Highland Golf and Country Club. He is tied for third in the individual standings, one shot back of co-leaders Anthony Delisanti of Valparaiso and Luke Armbrust of Illinois, who sit atop the individual leaderboard at two-under 68 heading into Tuesday's final round.
