FOREST, Va. — Averett has a three-stroke lead after one round of play at the Lynchburg College Hornet Invitational on Sunday at London Downs Golf Club. Averett's team score of 303 was just ahead of Virginia Wesleyan College's 306 in the seven-team tournament.

Junior Sam Mantiply and sophomore Travis Bowman carded 3-over-par 75s to lead Averett, which also got a 76 from senior Mark Rowland and a 77 from sophomore Andrew Tilley. Freshman Kalle Kangas also shot an 80 for Averett.

The highlight of the day was Tilley's hole in one on No. 16.

Virginia Wesleyan's Trae Kresinske led all scorers with a 72 in the first round.

The final round will get underway on Monday.
