Reyn Tanaka had a 79 on Tuesday over the 6,833-yard, par 72 layout to finish with a 237 after opening-day rounds of 77-81. He tied for 65th with five others. Trevor Loe had an 80 Tuesday to go with Monday's rounds of 81-78 for a 54-hole total of 239 and a three-way tie for 71st. Lamar University took a 1-stroke victory over Xavier University with a 297 on Tuesday for a 54-hole score of 891. Xavier held a 1-stroke lead going into Tuesday's final round.
