McMullen’s Matching 66s Give Him UIndy Invite Lead Through 36 Holes

No one in the last 27 years of Ashland University men's golf has accomplished what senior Matthew McMullen did on Monday (Sept. 23).
 
In the first two rounds of the University of Indianapolis Invitational on Monday, McMullen went 66-66—132 to finish 12-under par and in first place on the individual leaderboard. That 132 is the lowest 36-hole total in the program since 1996-97, and the two 66s are tied for second-lowest round since then, as well.
 
McMullen's rounds lifted Ashland to a fourth-place showing in the nine-team field through two rounds. The Eagles are at 285-281—566, with the second-round score tying for the fourth-best for an AU squad since 1996-97.
 
Freshman Charlie Fish, playing as an individual, is tied for fifth at 6-under 70-68—138.
 
…AND THE REST OF THE STORY

• Junior Carter Mishler is tied for 24^th at 72-71—143, freshman Shaun Mazzalupi is tied for 31^st (73-73—146), freshman Mark Pillar is tied for 35^th (77-71—148), and junior Lukas Schreck is tied for 52^nd (74-79—153).
• Missouri S&T is the second-round team leader at 275-278—553, followed by Ferris State (283-271—554), Missouri-St. Louis (281-274—555), and Ashland.
