PINEHURST, N.C. - Northern Illinois men's golf freshman Griffin Bauman helped the Huskies advance to eighth place at the Pinehurst Intercollegiate when he shaved off eight strokes from his opening round score to finish two under par during second round action at the Centennial Pinehurst No. 8 in Pinehurst, N.C., Saturday. After 36 holes of play NIU is tied for ninth place with a score of 599 points. The Huskies entered the second day of competition in tenth place, before improving by three strokes during the second round to total 599 (301, 298). Penn State sits in first place with a score of 580. "I am really pleased with the team's performance," NIU head men's golf coach Tom Porten said. "We played really solid as a team today. We keep making steady progress each round and we are very much looking forward to tomorrow's final round of competition."
