BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – After a lackluster finish last week at the Scenic City Intercollegiate, Head Coach Mark McEntire led the Blue Raiders into the Graeme McDowell Invitational looking for some low numbers and got exactly that on Tuesday.
His team posted a 3-over par 291 in the opening round before carding a 4-under 284 in the afternoon, the third best round of the day in the 10-team field.
Middle Tennessee moved into fourth place by the end of the second round, sitting nine strokes off the pace set by Georgia Southern and six strokes back of host UAB who has already won two events this season.
