Detroit Tallies Fifth Best 36-Hole Tournament Record As CSU Invitational Shortened Due To Rain

Full Results
 
AURORA, Ohio (9/30/2014) --
Rain, rain, go away, is the tune going on right now for the University of Detroit Mercy men's golf team as the Titans saw their second-straight tournament come to an early end due to inclement weather as the third round of the Cleveland State Invitational was called off on Tuesday morning.
 
Heavy rains in the morning forced a delay and ultimately the cancellation at the Par 72 7,049-yard Barrington Country Club in Aurora, Ohio.
 
The Titans ended in fourth place after posting a 584 (292-292) total, good for the fifth best 36-hole school in school history and the best two-round tournament since 2008. Detroit was in position to not only move up in the standings, but go after a tournament win as it trailed only Appalachian State (579), Youngstown State (580) and Wright State (581).
 
Sophomore Kyle Gaines was once again the low man as he shared fifth with a 143 (72-71), just two shots off the lead. He has now finished in the top 10 in all three events this season and five in a row dating back to last year.
 
Junior Wil Wittmann and sophomore Spencer Lendzion tied for17th place with a 147. Wittmann had the best round in the event for Detroit – and tied for the second best 18-hole score in the tournament - recording his fifth career score in the 60's with a 3-under 69 in the second round.
 
Freshmen Devan Schulert and Eric Macrow each made their collegiate debuts and both were quite successful. Schulert tied for 23rd with a 148 (70-78) as fired a 2-under 70 in the first round, while Macrow tied for 48th with a 153 (72-81), including an opening-round even-par performance.
 
Rounding out the Titan line-up was junior Aaron Knutson as he took 60th with a 155 (78-77).
 
Detroit will have some time off before getting back out on the links at the Dayton Invitational, set for Oct. 20-21 at the NCR Country Club's South Course in Kettering, Ohio.
