MOBILE, Ala. – Todd Eckstein opened with an even-par 72 and David Sargent followed with a career-best 68 as Davidson sits just inside the Top-10 after day one of the Mobile Sports Authority Intercollegiate hosted by the University of South Alabama.
The 54-hole / two-day event is being played on the Par-72, 7,160-yard Magnolia Grove Crossings layout. Tuesday's final round will begin with a 10 a.m. shotgun start.
Eckstein (72-74), who paced the Wildcats with a 72.81 stroke average in the fall, is tied for 14th at 146 (+2), while Sargent (79-68) is one back of his teammate in a tie for 18th.
After a disappointing opening round, Sargent bounced back with four birdies and a bogey-free afternoon to climb 32 spots in the standings.
Andy Simmons (151/T-34th), Ralph Blasey (161/69th) and Alex Nianouris (164/72nd) are also a part of Davidson's starting five. Playing as an individual for the 'Cats, Spencer Papciak (159/+17) is currently T-19th on the individual-only leaderboard.
As a team, the Wildcats (307-298 = 605) are tied for ninth with Southern Miss, eight back of Texas State and nine behind Middle Tennessee State.
The host Jaguars (299-283 = 582) hold the top spot on the team leaderboard by a single shot over SEC foes Mississippi (292-291 = 583) and Auburn (291-292 = 583).
Thanks to a second-round six-under 66, Texas State's Tyler Saunders (-6) will enter the final round with a one stroke advantage over Auburn's Matt Gilchrest (-5)
In addition to Davidson, No. 22 Auburn, Belmont, Illinois State, Kentucky, Louisiana Tech, Memphis, Michigan State, Middle Tennessee, Mississippi, Mississippi State, South Alabama, Southern Mississippi, Texas State and Western Kentucky will make up the 15-team field.
