October 01, 2018 | Men's Golf, Features
Senior is tied for ninth, USC tied for sixth entering final round.
Senior Justin Suh fired a 1-under 69 for his third round under 70 in five starts this year, leading No. 3 USC's second-round efforts at the Nike Collegiate Invitational at Colonial C.C. in Fort Worth, Texas, on Monday (Oct. 1).
Â
The Trojans improved by two strokes in the second round and now sit at a combined 10-over 570 (286-284), tied for sixth and 11 back of first-place Duke.

Suh is tied for ninth at 1-under 139 (70-69), two back of an eight-way tie for first. The seniors turned even and was 1-over through 12 but birdied 13 and 17 to get into the red. Suh will be after his seventh career individual win after five as a junior and one as a sophomore.

Freshman Charlie Reiter keeps churning along with solid play and is tied for 17th at 1-over 141 (69-72) after a three-birdie, five-bogey round.

Sophomore Issei Tanabe ran into some troubles after his 2-under first round and is now tied for 38th at 6-over 146 (68-78).
Â
Junior Ryan Slater is tied for 64th at 11-over 151 (79-72) while junior Kyle Suppa is tied for 72nd at 14-over 154 (83-71), both players bouncing back after first-round struggles. Slater closed with birdies on 17 and 18 while Suppa had two birdies on the day.
