April 17, 2023 | Cowboy Golf
BRIDGEPORT, W. Va. – Oklahoma State's men's golf team surged into the lead after a strong opening nine to its second round at the Mountaineer Invitational on Monday at Pete Dye Golf Club.
The Cowboys grabbed the first-round lead with a 301 team total with their 13-over tally putting them one shot clear of West Virginia at the par-72, 7,308-yard layout. The Cowboys extended the margin to 17 after getting to 8-under par through 12 holes before play was called for the day.
Nine of the 13 teams in the field will complete their second round tomorrow morning before the third and final round. OSU stands at 5-over, while West Virginia and James Madison shared second place at 22-over par.
Jonas Baumgartner was one of just two players in the field to break par during the opening round. The Cowboy junior and St. John's Peicheng Chen each posted 1-under 71s to share the lead.
Baumgartner went out with a bogey-free 33, which included birdies at the third, sixth and eighth holes. He would open his second nine with five consecutive pars before carding bogeys at Nos. 15 and 16. He would close his round with a pair of pars.
At 1-under through 12 during the afternoon, Baumgartner finished the day two shots clear of teammate Leo Oyo in the individual race at 2-under par.
Oyo posted a 75 to finish among the group tied for 10th place. However, the fifth year made his move up the board, wrapping up the first day at even par after getting to 3-under through 12 holes during his second round.
Senior Hazen Newman's 77 tied him for 27th place, while junior Bo Jin was a shot back with a 78 to tie for 34th place. Jin rose into a tie for seventh place at 3-under with six to play. Newman moved into a tie for 14th place with his 1-under score through 12.
Fifth year Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen finished the morning session tied for 70th place with an 83. He rose 26 spots after playing his first 12 holes during the afternoon in even par.
Senior Dillon Stewart is competing individually at the event and opened with a 77. He shot up the board into a tie for fourth place after getting to 3-under through 12 holes during the afternoon.
