BOWLING GREEN, Ky. --- Stephan Jaeger (Munich, Germany) moved into a tie for first and Steven Fox (Hendersonville, Tenn.) set a course record for the Chattanooga Mocs men's golf team at the NCAA Bowling Green Regional Friday. Chattanooga is third overall after today's seven-under par 281.
Fox fired an eight-under par 64. The round included a perfect card with eight birdies and 10 pars. It broke the Club at Olde Stone record set by Chattanooga area native Luke List. He jumped from a tie for 35th into fourth at four-under par 140.
That puts Fox three shots off the lead. There is a tie at the top between Jaeger and UCLA's Pedro Figueiredo at minus seven. Jaeger's topsy-turvy 67 gives him a 36-hole total of 137. His card included an eagle, eight birdies, five bogeys and just four pars.
Liam Johnston (Dumfries, Scotland) and Chris Robb (Aberdeenshire, Scotland) rounded out the team score shooting 74 and 76, respectively. Davis Bunn (Knoxville, Tenn.) had the drop score with an 83. Robb is third on the team with a total of 148 (+4) followed by Johnston (151) and Bunn (159).
No. 3 UCLA leads with a five-under tally of 571 shooting 287 (-1) in round two. No. 15 Texas A&M edged ahead of UTC at minus three powered by today's 278 (-10). Chattanooga is third at 575 with Memphis (582) and Virginia Tech (583) rounding out the top five.
The top five teams advance to the NCAA Championship. UTC has a 12-shot cushion over the sixth-place duo of Colorado State and Northwestern.
Bunn opens the final round for the Mocs at 8:40 a.m. Johnston (8:50), Robb (9:00), Fox (9:10) and Jaeger (9:20) follow as UTC is paired with the Bruins and Aggies. Live scoring can be accessed on GoMocs.com on the men's golf schedule page.
