Carter Zutterman fired a 71 and 70 on day 1 of the Blue Raider Classic at The Pines at Lindsey Wilson on Monday to lead Georgetown. It placed him in a tie for 10th on the individual leaderboard.

In Round 1, Zutterman started with 6 straight pars before consecutive bogeys and a double bogey to finish the front 9 with a 4-over 40. The freshman regathered at the turn and made his run. After pars on 10 and 11, Zutterman birdied 12 to get +3. After a bogey on the par-3 13th, he would birdie 4 of his final 5 holes to shoot 31 on the back nine and get to even par, 71, to end the round.

In Round 2, Zutterman got going early. After a par and bogey to start, he birdied the par-3 3rd, then followed with an impressive eagle on the par-5, 533 yard, 4th to get to -2. After pars on 3 of the next 4, Zutterman closed the front 9 with a birdie to make the turn with a 34 and -2. He would par 5 of the 1st 6 on the back 9 before a tough triple bogey on 16. The hole put him at +2 for the round, but the freshman show incredible resolve with an eagle on the par-4 17th and a birdie on 18. The last 2 holes brought Zutterman home in 70 to finish the day.

As a team, the Tigers finished the day in 9th place overall. Laine Schulten finished at +8 after making up ground in the 2nd round with a strong 73. Sean Mullarkey bounced back after an 81 in the opener with 74 in round 2.
