Austin Peay's 274 in today's second round was the top team round of the day, and Jacksonville State's Matias Anselmo claimed first day medalist honors with an 8-under-par 69-65--134 total.

In the morning round today, Middle Tennessee State's Blake Bivens and Southeastern Louisiana's Hugo Leon each recorded one of the rarest of golf feats, a hole-in-one, on different holes.

Leon did the same on the 195-yard, 12th hole, as part of his three-over-par 74 first round.
