WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - The Drake University men's golf team continued its strong play on the first day of the Golden Horseshoe Intercollegiate at the Golden Horseshoe Golf Course.

"Overall, I was very pleased with how we played today," said Drake head coach Matt Lewis. "It is a demanding course and I thought we managed our games well."
