PRINCEVILLE, Hawai`i – Ryan Porch is tied for 29th after the opening round of the Warrior Princeville Makai Invitational.
His 73 puts him in a logjam of 12 players who are one-over with another six at even par, and seven at one-under. East Tennessee State's Mateusz Gradecki is the leader by one stroke with a seven-under 65.
"We got off to a poor start," coach David Nuhn said, "but the guys battled."
An already challenging layout at the Makai Golf Club was made more difficult by wind and rains of late that made it play longer than its 7,200 yards.
