ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. – After 36 holes of play, Davidson's Will Davis is just four strokes off the pace at The Peoples Championship hosted by Western Carolina University.
The three-day / 54-hole event is being played on the Par-71, 6,664-yard Sea Palms Resort layout.
Tomorrow's third and final round will begin at 8:30 a.m.
Following a four-under 67 Thursday, Davis (-5) signed for a 70 this afternoon to climb into fifth on the individual leaderboard.
Teammate Joshua Stewart (68-71 | -3) signed for an even-par 71 and is two back of Davis, while remaining in the Top-10.
Davis and Stewart finished tied for second a year ago for the Wildcats, who entered the annual event as the two-time defending champs.
Davis Sayman (+7 | T-76), Jackson Bode (+7 | T-76) and Nate Faulkner (+9 | T-87) are also in the Davidson lineup.
Will Tharin (+1 | T-28), who opened with a one-under 70, carded a second-round 73 to lead Davidson's four individual competitors.
Davidson, which entered the day alone in second place, fell to eighth in the team standings, but is just five strokes out of third.
UNCG (-21) extended its lead to 15 swings over Villanova (-6), while the Spartans' Kelvin Hernandez and Jake Lewis share the top spot on the individual board at 9-under.
Belmont, Charleston Southern, Drexel, Florida A&M, Francis Marion, Long Island, Marshall, Mount St. Mary's, Murray State, Richmond, Siena, Tennessee Tech, UT-Martin, Villanova, Winthrop, Wright State, and Xavier are also in the record 20-team field.
