The freshman duo are tied for ninth on the player leaderboard after two rounds at the Koasati Pines Intercollegiate
KINDER, La. – Louisiana Tech's Jake Plumb and Gray Kingrea ended Monday tied for ninth on the player leaderboard after 36 holes at the Koasati Pines Intercollegiate.
Â
The freshman duo each finished the two rounds at 141 (-3) followed by another freshman Bulldog in Reeves Pullin, playing in his first event this season and shooting 145 (+1) to be tied for 22nd. Joel Thomas Stephens was the fourth Bulldog playing at the Koasati Pines Golf Club, shooting 77-76=153 (+9).
Â
Plumb nearly went bogey free in round one, making his lone bogey on the final hole. That did not deter an excellent round though as he shot 70 (-2), tying for his second lowest score of the season. The England native followed that up with a 71 (-1) in round two.
Â
After shooting 40 on the back nine, Kingrea would find his groove on the front in round one. A stretch of three birdies in four holes helped him rebound with a 33 on the front, shooting 73 (+1). He carried that momentum into round two that was nearly flawless, getting to six under through 16 holes. A bogey-bogey finish though resulted in a 68 (-4), which still became his lowest round as a Bulldog.
Â
Pullin was right there with Plumb in round one. After bogeying his first hole on No. 7, the freshman birdied four of his next five in route to a 70 (-2). Round two was more up-and-down, ending in a 75 (+3).

NOTABLES
The Bulldogs will play the third and final round on Tuesday.
