JEKYLL ISLAND, Ga. – The Millsaps Majors Men's Golf Team competed in Day Two of the Jekyll Island Collegiate on Saturday afternoon. Millsaps shot one shot over their total from a day ago as they shot a team score of 305 to fall one spot to 18th place with one round to go.
 
Sophomore Thomas Baxter was terrific for the day as he led Millsaps with a 74 on the day to bring his total two round score to 152. Yesterday's leader, sophomore Chris Patton, dropped a little on the day as he shot a 79 one day after shooting a career low 73.
 
"We had another solid day today,” said Head Golf Coach Eddie Brescher. “We kept trying to get something going but just couldn't string together a solid stretch of holes." 
 
Sophomore Drew Richardson continued consistent play as he shot a 77 for the day to have a two round total of 153. Freshman Garrett Barnes made the biggest strides today as he shot a 75 for the day after shooting an 81 on Day One. Fellow freshman Lewis Peters shot an 81 to round out the team scoring.
 
Junior Jake Sherrington competed individually by shooting an 85 one day after shooting a Round One 82.
 
"We have a lot of potential on this team,” added Brescher. “We are very close to breaking through."
 
The Majors remain in front of four SCAC schools including two schools who are currently ranked in the Division III Men's Golf Top 25. Millsaps is back in action for the final round tomorrow afternoon.
