Course: Penn State Blue Course | Par: 72 | Yards: 7,228 McCarthy’s second round began nicely after he sank back-to-back birdie putts on his second and third holes of the day. The first birdie of round two was made on No. 18 – the same hole McCarthy was able to take advantage of with a birdie on day one of the tournament. The freshman upstart will look to carry the…

Course: Penn State Blue Course | Par: 72 | Yards: 7,228 The freshman, playing in only his second competition at the intercollegiate level, was steady throughout the first 15 holes in his opening round of 18. Late into the round, McCarthy found himself in the hunt before surrendering seven strokes over the final few holes due to hazards and an unforgiving stretch to end day one’s competition. Before the tough…

McCarthy, fresh off his first varsity outing as an intercollegiate student-athlete, will hope to build off this weekend’s 32nd place finish as he seeks a 2012 USCAA National Championship. The former Dexter High School standout is the lone eligible golfer at the 2012 invite that begins Monday (Oct. 8) morning in Pennsylvania. Also joining the Mustangs on the championship road trip is first year assistant coach, Ronnie Pollack, Jr. The…

DeVoe, shaving 36-seconds off her previous personal/school best, owned a 4:06/kilometer pace at Friday’s (Oct. 5) intercollegiate intra-state battle. The time was good enough to vault DeVoe into the top-100 finishers at a race that is host to NCAA Division I & II opponents, as well as NAIA and junior college schools. The senior stands alone atop all cross country records-to-date in only her third full year running competitively at…

Marcell Houston (Detroit, Mich./Mumford) managed to barely clip former record-holder Anthony Butler (Lincoln Park, Mich./Roosevelt) after he finished Friday’s 8K with a record time of 28:08. Butler’s previous mark, 28:15, came last season at the Lansing Invite (09/30/2011). In the end, it may be fitting that a mere seven seconds is all that stands between the Mustangs’ dynamic duo record pace as the pair are separated by less than two…

McClendon,…

Men’s 8K Course Map The Mustangs are projected to be led once again by sophomore upstart Marcell Houston (Detroit, Mich./Mumford) and senior record-holder Anthony Butler (Lincoln Park, Mich./Roosevelt). The pair have remained consistent through the early stages of the season. In fact, a mere 52 seconds separates Butler and Houston on the season over the course of nearly 10 miles logged to date. Sophomore’s Robert Crockett (Detroit, Mich./King) and Akil…

Freshman Krystal Jones-Bostic would be the only female runner for the Mustangs after injuries depleted the team. The 5K event would be Jones-Bostic’s first race in two years. The savvy distance runner came out strong and kept a strong pace through the daunting course. A time…
