OPELIKA, Ala. – The Millsaps men's golf program competed well at the LTU Spring Break Invitational, which was highlighted by senior Will Danielson's runner-up finish. Danielson also fired a 66, the lowest one-round score by a Major since April 2016.
 
Lawrence Technological University played host at Grand National Golf Club for three rounds of par-72 action, Wednesday through Friday.

The Majors finished sixth out of 12 teams and only placed behind five nationally ranked NAIA teams. Millsaps combined to card plus-59 (299-320-304—923).

Danielson was named to the All-Tournament Team after finishing 1-under for the tournament (66-77-72—215). Hailing from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Danielson's 66 was the lowest of all competitors and his 215 score for the tournament was the lowest of his collegiate career. It was also Danielson's fourth top-five finish.

The senior's first round 66 was the best by a Millsaps men's golfer since Ryan Henry carded a 65 in the second round of the 2016 SAA Men's Golf Championship.

Freshman Charlie Berglund finished a solid 28th at plus-17 (76-82-75—233), while classmate Miles Harrison was close on the leaderboard in 35th at plus-22 (80-80-78—238). Harrison bettered his three-round collegiate best by one stroke.

Completing the top four performers for the Majors was senior Thomas Arensberg. The Jackson, Ala., native was 44th at plus-27 (82-82-79—243).

Junior Steven Noack landed in 49th place and posted single-round and three-round lows as a Major (77-81-87—245).

Sophomore Davin Karst also represented the Majors in 62nd (91-87-99—277).
 
The Millsaps men's golf team will be back in action at the Eagle's Bluff Intercollegiate, March 31 and April 1 in Bullard, Texas.
