COACH'S COMMENT: "It was an excellent day for the team," Calvin head men's golf coach Brian Bolt said. "We climbed from seventh after day one to third by shooting 284, the low round of the day. All five guys put together a complete round on a golf course that we had not seen before. That shows a tremendous amount of golf acumen and maturity."
