COLUMBIANA, Ohio - Cleveland State shot an opening round 333 and is in fifth place out of eight teams at the season opening Youngstown State Invitational at the par-72, 5,932-yard Firestone Farms G.C.
The Vikings are just seven shots behind second place Bethel College which opened with a 326. Bethel is followed by Walsh (329) and Dayton (332).
"I thought we had a pretty good opening round," assistant coach Nathan Miklos said. "For such a young team, we did a great job of managing the golf course and limiting our mistakes. We are right in the mix and a good round tomorrow could vault us up a few spots."
