Press Release Per UK Athletics

CINCINNATI – The Kentucky men’s golf team is in 11th place after day one of play at the Bearcat Invitational, going 6-over par as a team through the first 36 holes at Coldstream Country Club (par 71, 7279 yards).

After carding 291 (+7) in the opening round, the Wildcats shaved eight shots on their second loop around the course, turning in a 1-under par effort of 283.
