The Sun Devil men's golf team jumped out to the 18-hole lead Friday afternoon behind the play of 2019 Pac-12 Freshman of the Year Cameron Sisk at the Maui Jim Intercollegiate held at Mirabel Golf Club in Scottsdale.

Sisk posted seven birdies en route to a 6-under 64 and is tied for third, two shots off the lead, as his 6-under 64 is his best in 41 collegiate rounds and his 15th in the 60s. Senior Chun An Yu and junion Won Jun Lee are both at 5-under. A triple bogey on his fifth hole put An Yu at 1-over, but he fired off seven birdies in the next 11 holes. He leads the tournament in par-4 scoring (6-under/3.50 stroke average) and in birdies (nine).
