The UF's men's golf team must have liked what it did in Sunday's first round at the Hootie at Bulls Bay Invitational in Charleston, S.C.
Monday's second round mirrored the first almost exactly.
Firing its second straight one-over 285, UF made up one shot on leader South Carolina even though it fell one spot on the leaderboard to fourth place.
Tyson Alexander continued his resurgence, leading UF for the day with a 1-under 70. The sophomore, who has turned his game around in this tournament after struggling for much of the spring, sits in a tie for fifth place at 1-under for the tournament, three shots behind individual leader Matt Hill of North Carolina State.
Senior Manuel Villegas and junior Toby Ragland each shot even-par 71. Villegas is tied for 12th at 1-over for the tournament, and Ragland, at 2-over, shares 19th place.
Junior Billy Horschel and senior Tyler Brown contributed UF's over-par numbers for the day, with Horschel notching a 2-over 73 and Brown making just one birdie in his 4-over 75.
For Horschel, who took a 7 on the par-4 11th hole, it marked the second straight day with a double bogey or worse. For Brown, who had been tied for seventh, it was a disappointing middle act.
Both are tied for 23rd at 3-over for the tournament.
