Utah State sophomore golfer Andy Hess shot an opening round 5-under par 67 in his first-ever round for the Aggies and is currently tied for first place after the first day at the Air Force-hosted Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational held Friday at the Eisenhower Golf Club.

Utah State is tied for 10th place in the 19-team field with a 4-over 292, while Colorado State has a two-stroke advantage on the field after its opening round 6-under 282.

Hess, who is tied with three other golfers for first place, carded five birdies during a six-hole stretch on the front nine to shoot a 5-under 31, before shooting even par on the back nine with two birdies and two bogeys for his 5-under 67.
