MOREHEAD, Ky. -- After a stellar round two, the Morehead State men's golf team finished third in the Colonel Shootout hosted by Eastern Kentucky. Morehead State finished with a three-round aggregate score of 842 with rounds of 282-276-284.

The Eagles finished +2, placing right behind Eastern Kentucky's second place score of even, and first place Longwood's score of -5. 

"Overall it was a positive event for us," said head coach Matthew Martin. "Our team stayed fairly consistent from start to finish.  It was great to have nine guys out there competing; with three of them making their collegiate debuts.  We will recharge and work hard to be ready for our next challenge at SIUE."

Remy Stalcup led the Eagles, shooting under par through all three rounds and tying for third in the tournament with a score of -4 (69-69-68--206).

Seamus Bogan also showed a strong round two with a score of -3, but ultimately finished 18th in the tournament (72-67-74--213). Logan McCormick wasn't far behind Bogan, tying for 19th (+4) after shooting even on round three (71-73-70--214).
