JONESBORO, Ark. – Junior Jack Story carded back-to-back 71's today as the University of Tennessee at Martin golf team wrapped up the first two rounds of the Bubba Barnett Intercollegiate held at RidgePointe Country Club.

Playing as an individual, Story is in a five-way tie for second place at 142 (-2), just two strokes behind Southeastern Louisiana's Kris Kerr for the individual lead. The Dickson, Tenn. native accounted for two birdies, 15 pars and one bogey during his morning round while contributing an eagle, two birdies, 12 pars and three bogeys in Round 2. His eagle – which took place on Hole No. 5, a par-4 playing at 506 yards – was one of eight during the tournament's first day.

His remarkable second round was tied for the lowest score of the day and included seven birdies – including four in a row to close out the round – to bring his total score to 144 (E), which is tied for seventh in the standings.
          Â
Tate Chumley led the Skyhawk scoring lineup in Round 1, tallying four birdies on his way to an even-par 72. Mason Chandler (three birdies – all in the span of four holes on the back-nine) and Cameron Smith (four birdies) each notched a 76 (+4) while Redmont's 77 rounded out the team scoring. Nick Wolf also shot an 80 (+8) for UT Martin during Round 1 this morning.
