CHASE MYERS | AVERETT UNIVERSITY
Myers, a first-year from Greensboro, N.C., earned his first tournament medal in just his second collegiate start at the one-day 36-hole Glory Days/SU Invitational hosted by Shenandoah University at the Winchester Country Club on Monday. Myers finished at 6-under 136 to win by one stroke over Chowan University's Bjoern Holt following two rounds on the par-71 track set to 6,367 yards. Myers had a colorful scorecard over his first 18 holes, offsetting four bogeys with five birdies on the way to 1-under 70. He was bogey-free in round two, again registering five birdies for a 5-under 66 to tie for the fifth-lowest round in Averett men's golf history. Myers' 10 birdies were second-most of the 79 players, trailing only teammate Lukas Newton with 12. Myers led the field in par-4 scoring (-7, 3.68).
Averett, which received votes towards the latest Bushnell/Golfweek Division III Coaches Poll, finished second out of 14 teams at 10-over 578 (294-284). They trailed only Division II member Chowan by two strokes.
