Freshman Ricky Castillo also had a solid day on the course, carding six birdies to finish at 1 under. The Yorba Linda, Calif., native is currently 4 over through all 36 holes and tied for 24th on the individual leaderboard.
18 holes remain in the event, giving Florida the opportunity to go low and try to climb the leaderboard. The final round is set to begin tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. ET.
Coach's Take
J.C. Deacon, Head Coach
"We just made too many big numbers today. We had plenty of birdies, but couldn't make them count. I believe in this team and their attitudes have been great. We are going to dig deep and play a great final round tomorrow."
