NEWNAN, Ga. (Men's Golf) – The Lake-Sumter State College (LSSC) men's golf team has officially completed their first day of competition at the Spring Skyhawk Invitational – marking the team's first large-field tournament. After 36 holes of golf, the Lakehawks sit at 10th place going into the final round tomorrow morning.

Held at Newnan Country Club, the Lakehawks squared off against a nationally ranked field, from both the NAIA and NJCAA, on a challenging and unfamiliar course. The day began with a frost delay, as the cold temperatures created an obstacle for competitors before the first tee was struck.

While day one scores did not reflect the Lakehawk's full potential, the experience gained today was invaluable. Competing in field of predominantly four-year golfers, this afternoon's results provided the team with a clear goal for future rounds of golf.

Rounds 1 and 2 Results

28. Tripp Watkins – Rd 1 +8, Rd 2 +7

40. Kasen Schlichenmaier – Rd 1 +9, Rd Two +11
