Kiawah Island, S.C. – No. 26/24 Tennessee will head into the final day of the East Bay Deli Classic with a 10-stroke lead and a pair of Vols atop the individual leaderboard after Monday's second round at the Turtle Point Golf Course at the Kiawah Island Golf Resort.
The Vols, who turned in a 2-under-par 286 on Monday, stand 8-over for the tourney at 584. They lead second-place Chattanooga by 10 strokes. The Mocs were 3-under on day two with a 285. Jacksonville State and Rutgers are tied for third at 598, followed by College of Charleston rounding out the top five in the 15-team field.
Individually, sophomore Rhys Nevin and senior Lorenzo Scalise are tied with High Point's Emile Menard for first place through 36 holes with 1-over 145s. Nevin, from Cheshire, England, posted a 2-under 70 on Monday, while Scalise (Milan, Italy) fired a 72. Nevin recorded seven birdies, while Scalise logged three on the day.
Only two shots back are redshirt freshman Sean Wilcox (Frisco, Texas) and true freshman Spencer Cross (Sevierville, Tenn.) with 147s. Wilcox followed Sunday's 73 with a 74 on Monday, while Cross improved seven strokes over day one's 77 and ranks fourth among all golfers with 24 pars thus far through 36 holes.
Sophomore Brayden Garrison (Nolensville, Tenn.) is tied for 22nd with an 8-over 152 after rounds of 77 and 75. True freshman Chase Roswall (Bristol, Tenn.) stands tied for 82nd at 168.
