Thornberry Continues Play at NCAA Tuscaloosa Regional

May 17, 2016

Tuscaloosa, Ala. - Ole Miss freshman Braden Thornberry completed the second round of play at the NCAA Men's Golf Tuscaloosa Regional hosted by the University of Alabama Tuesday.

Thornberry carded a birdie on the 549-yard, par 5 No. 14 to finish his first nine holes at 1-over par. The Southaven, Mississippi native posted a second round score of 4-over 76 to finish the day 31st overall and 6th individually with a two-day total of 4-over 148. Leading the individuals is David Kocher of Maryland with a score of even par-142, while Georgia leads the teams with a score of 10-under par 566.

"Braden really fought hard out there today," said Ole Miss head coach Chris Malloy. "He certainly hasn't had his A-game in terms of ball striking but scrambled extremely well. I know he's excited to get back out there tomorrow and get a low round in and see where that leaves him."

Thornberry tees off the final round tomorrow at 10:02 a.m. CST. Fans can follow live stats from the NCAA Tuscaloosa Regional at OleMissSports.com or GolfStat.com.
