EATONTON, Ga. – The Kennesaw State men's golf team opened play at the Linger Longer Invitational at Great Waters Golf Club at Reynolds Lake Oconee on Sunday.
 
The Owls carded an 11-over par round of 299 and are tied for ninth with South Florida and Wofford. No. 20 Alabama and No. 34 Georgia are tied for the lead at 5-under par 283.
 
"Great Waters was a true test today with fast greens and breezy conditions. Hugo played an amazing round amongst some of the best players in college golf," head coach Bryant Odom said. "As a team, we must improve on the par 5s and increase our opportunities there. We are last on that category. We are tied for the lead in par 3 play and very respectable in the par 4s so we hope to keep that up. If we can get all five players involved in scoring tomorrow we can post a solid team score."
 
Hugo Lari paced the Owls on a Sunday with a round of 4-under par 68. Lari rolled in seven birdies and nine pars during the round. The junior is in a three-way tie for the lead in the event.
 
Evan Thompson posted a 76 while Claes Borregaard recorded a 77. Thompson is tied for 55^th and Borregaard is tied for 65^th.

Playing as an individual, Lucas Mota is in 91^st.
 
The Owls are set to tee off in round two of the Linger Longer Invitational at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, March 20.
