BRIDGEPORT, W.VA. – Senior Gen Nagai (Mandaue Cebu City, Philippines) shot a 2-over-par, 74, in the first round to lead the Seton Hall men's golf team in round one of the 2018 Mountaineer Intercollegiate.

Â
Nagai used 15 pars to fuel his strong round, and was tied for 17th among 78 individual golfers following round one. Winthrop's Sawyer Mills was the individual leader after round one after a 4-under-par, 68.
Â

Â
Freshman Deven Ramachandran (San Rafael, Calif.) rode birdies on holes No. 3 and No. 7 to a 4-over-par, 76. He is tied for 22nd place through one round.Â
Â
Both sophomore Andres Acevedo (San Antonio, Texas) and freshman Hunter Ramee (Warren, Conn.), competing as an individual, were tied for 32nd place with a 5-over-par, 77.Â
