SOUTH KENT, CONN. – Seniors Chris Yeom (Flushing, N.Y.) and Gen Nagai (Mandaue Cebu City, Philippines) each shot under par on Monday, and the Seton Hall men's golf team is currently in fourth place following the first round of the 2018 Hartford Hawks Invitational.
The field was originally scheduled to play 36 holes on Monday, but play was interrupted in the second round due to darkness. They're scheduled to complete the second round tomorrow, before beginning round three.
Yeom fired a 5-under-par, 67, in today's first round, and is currently tied for fifth place among a large field of 110 individual golfers. Nagai shot a 3-under-par, 69, and is tied for 12th. The individual lead is currently shared by four golfers at 6-under-par.
As a team, the Pirates shot an impressive 6-under-par, 282, which is tied for the fifth-lowest par-72 single-round score in Seton Hall history. The Hall trails the team leader, Central Florida, by eight strokes entering Tuesday. Connecticut (-13), Rhode Island (-7) and Cal Poly (-3) are also currently under par.
Fresh off a fourth place finish in his first collegiate tournament, freshman Deven Ramachandran (San Rafael, Calif.) fired another strong round, a 1-over-par, 73. Among others, he is tied with teammate Alex Chalk (Castle Douglas, Scotland) for 30th place overall.
Sophomore Andres Acevedo (San Antonio, Texas) shot a 7-over-par, 79, in round one to round out the Pirate starters.
Competing as an individual, sophomore Gregor Tait (Martlesham Heath, England) shot a 3-over-par, 75, in the first round.
Tournament Details:
2018 HARTFORD HAWKS INVITATIONAL
Host: University of Hartford
Location: South Kent, Conn.
Course: Bull's Bridge Golf Club
Course Vitals: Par-72, 6,992 yards
Dates: September 17-18, 2018
The Course:
Nestled in northwestern Connecticut's scenic Litchfield County, Bull's Bridge Golf Club offers a truly unique golf experience. The Berkshire foothills provide an impressive panorama with spectacular views prominent throughout the property. The 18 hole, championship golf course was opened in 2004, and it has quickly commanded the attention of the golf community. Designed by Tom Fazio, one of America's greatest living golf architects, the par-72 layout exemplifies his trademark design versatility. With four sets of tees, two hybrid course layouts and yardages ranging from 5,300 to 7,000 yards, the course simultaneously appeals to and challenges players of all skill levels. While Travel + Leisure Golf rated it one of America's Best New Private Courses in 2004, the course already exhibits a maturity and presentation level well beyond its years.
The Field:
In addition to Seton Hall and host Hartford, the large field includes 18 other schools: Bryant, Cal Poly, Central Florida, Connecticut, Drexel, Fairfield, Fairleigh Dickinson, Fordham, Hofstra, Holy Cross, LaSalle, LIU-Brooklyn, Mount St. Mary's, Rhode Island, Rider, Sacred Heart, Towson and Weber State.
Tee Times:
The field will play two continuous rounds on Monday with a shotgun start beginning at 8:00 a.m. A final 18 holes will be played on Tuesday with also an 8:00 a.m. shotgun start.
