CARLSBAD, Calif. - Freshman Cole Madey shot a 4-under par 67 on the first day of the Gifford Collegiate at the La Costa Legends Course, posting an eagle and five birdies to take the tournament lead by one stroke through 18 holes. The Bruins are tied for third as a team (+3, 287), two shots back of Stanford and Washington and tied with Oregon.
Madey, who recorded the first under par round of his career, eagled the par-5 12th and also made birdies at #4, #5, #8, #15 and #17. The only blemishes on his scorecard were a bogey on the 16th and a double on the 10th.
