DAY 1 RESULTS   |   LIVE SCOREBOARD

MOBILE, Ala. –
The Nicholls State University men's golf team shot 287 in each of Monday's rounds, ending the day 2-under and in sixth place in the Mobile Sports Authority Intercollegiate at the Magnolia Grove Crossings Golf Course.

Senior Baker Stevenson had a career round to start things off, shooting a 5-under 67 to tie for first place after 18 holes. He carded a 3-over 75 in the second round, but still led Nicholls at 2-under for the day.

Stevenson was on fire early, sinking birdies on two of the first three holes. He added four more to reach 6-under but bogeyed the final hole of the round. In the second, he had four bogeys, including one double, and two birdies to shoot a 75.

Freshman Loic Maigret shot under par (-1) through 36 holes as well, firing rounds of 72 and 1-under 71. Connor Campbell finished the day at +1 (72-73--145) and Jack Lee was two strokes behind (76-71). Ben Baker (+8) bounced back from an 80 in the opening round to shoot even in the second 18.

Florida State is atop the team standings at 23-under and is followed by Louisville (-18). Both teams are ranked in the Golfstat top 40. FSU's John Pak (-11) leads the field by four strokes.
