Indianapolis, IN – Millikin University Men's Golf was in action on Monday and Tuesday, taking part in the Wabash College Invitational. After three rounds of golf at the par 72, 6,904 yard Broadmoor Country Club, the Big Blue finished 5^th with a score of 870 (+6). Millikin's third and final round was the lowest that the Big Blue have shot this season at five under par.
 
Millikin was led by Jake Krstulovich, who rebounded from a round one 76 with a pair of two-under 70s. He finished the tournament tied for 12^th with a score of 216 (E). Just behind was Trevor Biggerstaff, who tied for 14^th with a 217 (+1) over his 54 holes of golf. Teddy Walbaum continued the string of strong performances, getting better in every round en route to a 218 (+2) and a tie for 19^th place. Alex Grenier finished in a tie for 27^th, shooting a pair of even par rounds after a 78 in round one. He scored 222 (+6). Will Ross was tied for 37^th with a 224 (+8), he shot a even par round in the closing 18 holes.

"This was a very solid showing for us in an ultra-competitive field." said Director of Golf Sam Osborne '10. "While this wasn't the best result we've ever had here, it certainly was one of the better scores that we've shot. It's always tough to rebound from a slow start, and round one wasn't up to our standard. However, it was great to see the team pull it together for round two, and have our strongest round in the closing 18 holes. The four teams that beat us are national contenders every year, and for good reason. We want to be in that conversation, and this was a great step towards that goal."
 
Playing as the individual, Alex McMillin opened with a one under par 71 in the first round. He finished at 233 (+17) and was tied for 67^th.

Millikin is back in action on October 18-20, when they take part in the Golfweek October Classic. The Big Blue will also field a team in the Cougar Clash on October 12, a reserve tournament.
