Jags in contention at DBU after first day
DENTON – The UHV men's golf team is in second place after the opening two rounds at the Dallas Baptist University Classic on Monday.
The Jaguars shot rounds of 295 and 293 at Robson Ranch Wildhorse Golf Club to sit 11 strokes back of host and NCAA DII Dallas Baptist.
UHV was one of three teams to shave strokes off their opening round score, which led to an eight-spot jump.
Will Paton finished the opening day tied for 11th in the field of 83 golfers after consecutive even-par rounds of 72.
The senior from Portsmouth, England, had a team-best six birdies in the second round and finished with nine total between the two rounds.
Carson Caylor and Dawson Frye are both tied for 22nd after each shooting rounds of 74 and 73.
Caylor had seven birdies on his card while Frye, who's playing in his second tournament this spring, had six.
Jacob Flores had consecutive rounds of 75 for the Jaguars and sits T-31. Jaxon Langford (80-76—156) is T-66.
The tournament will conclude on Tuesday.
