The men’s golf team started off the BIG EAST Championships with a hot start, finishing two strokes over par (290) and sitting in second place one stroke behind Georgetown (289) in Callawassie Island, South Carolina.
Freshman Hunter Eichhorn led the Golden Eagles at three strokes under par (69) and is tied for first place individually with Georgetown’s Cole Berman.
“It seems like the bigger the stage, (Eichhorn) turns his game up, ” head coach Steve Bailey said. “He continues to battle and compete. Obviously, he really helped us down the stretch.”
Bailey was proud of his entire team as well.
