VSU jumped out to a three-stroke lead over Lincoln University (MO) after the opening round on Friday. “This is a huge tournament for us and we are happy to be sitting in first place in a very tough division,” said Brian Wood, who led the Trojans with a 77. “We have to play better because there are too many good teams. We have to keep our cool.”
