I'm seeing that they're +1 on the day, not -4. They're currently -4 for the tournament. Most of the guys are still on the front 9.

I was referring to their overall score which is now at -3. We are one of two teams under par for the weekend (the next closest right now is at +6

What's helping Liberty at this point is we're more consistent than SMU across our top 3. Our top 3 are at -4, -2 and E. SMU's top three are at -7, E and +2.

Oh, ok. Just an FYI, when you say they're at -4 on the day, that's referring to that day's rounds.

Any idea what the conditions are like today? They're at +8 on the day and +3 overall which is good enough for a 1 stroke lead. Players are all on the 13th hole or later at this point.

Ive heard it called level par or even par (level isnt used as often) either way, we have a 6 shot lead going into the final day, Robert Karlsson is two shots off the individual lead at -5.

been following the team all season. They started off a bit slow it seemed but have really turned it up. It seems as if we can get our 5th player (we rotate them quite a bit) to shoot any kind of decent number tom. we can win this thing. If we show up at all were moving on to the next round.

Great to see how coach Thomas has built this program. Agreed if we can get our # 5 player going consistently we could be very tough if we reach nationals. Great job so far in the regionals.
