[Golf] Bryan Golf Tees Off Fall Season At SCAD Atlanta Invitational

COVINGTON, Ga. – The Bryan College Lions men's and women's golf teams started their fall season at the SCAD Atlanta Invitational, which took place at the beautiful Oaks Golf Course in Covington, GA Sept 4-5. Freshman, Peter Brown (FR) led the Lions on Day 1 and Day 2 of the tournament, recording a 71 on the first day and 72 on the second to begin his college career with a strong 143 performance. He was followed closely on Day 2 by juniors Kevin Knudsen (JR/Sugar Hill, Ga.) with a 73, Zach Belvin (SR/Scottsboro, Ala.) at 74, and Andres Arteaga (JR/La Paz, Bolivia) at 76 to end the day with a 295-team score and a two-day total of 598. Brown's 71 and 72 for a 143 was good for 9th place in a strong field, which was led by medalist Matt Nuttall of Faulkner University (Ga.) who shot a 64 and 66 for an impressive 130. Nuttall eventually won in a playoff over Dawson Day of fellow Appalachian Athletic Conference school, Truett McConnell University (Ga.), who also tallied an outstanding 130, setting a new tournament record for the event.
