CHATEAU ELAN CC- The Millsaps Majors are tied for fifth after the second day of three at the Southern Athletic Association Championships held at Chateau Elan Country Club.
Ryan Henry was the low man on Saturday, shooting a second round 74. Henry started out hot, carding a birdie on his first hole. He'd stay at one-under until he bogeyed the par-four seventh hole to finish his starting nine at even par. The back nine was a little crueler to Henry as he bogeyed three holes to finish the back nine with a 38 and a 74 overall. He is in a tie for 22nd overall after day two.
Ryan Martin is the top finisher so far for the Majors as he is tied for 15th. Martin shot a second round 78. Martin got out to a tough start, bogeying three of the first seven holes in round two. Martin battled back with a birdie on the ninth to make the turn at two over par. Two double bogeys on the back nine was a stumbling block for Martin whose back-nine 40 led to the 78 in round two.
Freshman Tyler Kastner shaved five strokes off his round one score with a 77 in round two. Kastner avoided major trouble throughout the day, carding one birdie and seven bogeys. Kastner's score was the second best for th Majors on Saturday and moved him up into a tie for 34th.
The Majors are neck and neck with Birmingham Southern for fifth place overall. Both teams are chasing Berry College and will look to move up the leaderboard on the final day of the tournament Sunday.
