April 22, 2021 | Men's Golf
ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. – Mississippi State's men's golf team resumed play for the second round of the SEC Championship on Thursday. The Bulldogs shot a 304 for the round and remain in 13th place.
Sophomore Hunter Logan climbed the leaderboard to finish the round tied with South Carolina's No. 4 Ryan Hall for 35th place at 3-over. Austin Fulton birdied his second hole of the day but double bogeyed Holes 18, 1 and 4. The senior finished Thursday's round tied for 38th.
Ford Clegg completed the day tied for 61st with two birdies and Garrett Johnson tied for 65th. Loïc Ettlin putted for birdie on Hole 12 but double-bogeyed on the fourth green. He ended the round in 69th place.
"It was a struggle out there for us today," State's head coach Dusty Smith said. "We did not do a great job of handling the conditions and the adversity we faced. It's important that we learn from today and show up with great enthusiasm. We still have a lot to play for this year. We will not let the past two rounds define what kind of team we are."
The Dawgs will complete the final round of stroke play on Friday. Ettlin will be the first to tee off for the team at 7:10 a.m. CT. The top eight teams following Round 3 will advance to match play on Saturday.
