KEY STORYLINES

The Highlanders improved their score by five strokes from round two to three in their last outing, the ECU Intercollegiate. The team finished in a tie for sixth place.
Myles Creighton was on the outside looking in after the first day of the Intercollegiate, but capitalized in the final round. He shot one-under (71) in the final round, which propelled him to a sixth place finish.
He has now finished inside the top 10 in nine consecutive spring tournaments, including the last two Big South Championships.
The reigning Big South Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Creighton, landed inside the top five and was named to the Big South All-Championship Team.
The Highlanders finished seventh in the Big South Championship and are looking to top that this year.
The two Highlander freshmen in the lineup are competing at a high level already as Hunter Duncan and Tyler Hull have a 74.39 and 75.33 stroke average in their first collegiate season.
