Mooney kicked the event off with a bang, carding a career-best eight-under 63 in the first 18 holes. The Holden, Mass., native capped the round with a five-hole birdie streak in holes 13-17. A one-under 70 in the second round sits the sophomore in first with a combined score of 133 (-9).

The duo of Andrew Hahn and Brody DiBeneditto are next on the leaderboard for SHU in a tie for 27th. Both golfers carded rounds of 72 and 74 for a score of 146 (+4).
