The 54-hole tournament takes place at the Palmetto Golf Club, recognized as the oldest golf course in the United States.
It's the second event of the spring for the Eagles, who tied for 10th at the Gator Invitational in February in their first tournament of 2016. Freshman
Steven Fisk led the Eagles with an even-par 70-70-70=210, good enough to tie for 19th.
Fisk,
Jake Storey and
Henry Mabbett are back in the lineup after playing in the Gator.
Archer Price and
Cody O'Toole, who led the Eagles in scoring average in the fall, will get their first starts of the spring this week.
"Preparations have been good for this upcoming event in Aiken," Head Coach
Carter Collins said. "Palmetto Golf Club is a great, old-style course, and we are looking forward to competing."

Archer Price (70-76-72=218, +8) both played in the tournament as freshman.
