The @SunDevilMGolf team fired a 12-under 276 in Hawaii and sits two shots ahead of second-place Duke after two rounds of the John Burns Intercollegiate held at the Wailua Golf Course in Lihue.
Juniors Chun An Yu (70-68) and Blake Wagoner (70-68) both are tied for fourth at 6-under 138, two shots back of BYU's Rhett Rasmussen who is at 8-under 136 (70-66). Both Blake and Chun's round included an eagle and three birdies.
"It was another good day for our squad," said head coach Matt Thurmond. "I'm really proud of our steadiness. We've had good rounds all season. Right now we have five guys who can win any event and we never know which score we won't use."
Alex del Rey had five birdies and is tied for tenth at 5-under 139 (70-69).
"Once again we have a chance to win going into the final day. We can't wait to compete tomorrow. The guys have done a really good job adjusting to the grass and air here and we played clean today, making very few bogeys."
ASU is 22-under (4.45 average score) on the par-5 holes, best in the tournament. Both ASU and BYU have three eagles in 36 holes. Wagoner's two eagles are tied for the tournament lead, as is Yu's 27 pars.
