WINDSOR, CO – MSU Billings
golfer Chris Haas shot an opening round 80 to tie
for eighth place after day one of the Northern

holds a two-stroke lead on Regis for the tournament

to card his 80. The Jackets’ Chris McConnell used a
front nine 39 to join Josh Zimmerman tied at 13th place with an 83. Matt Desin and Eric Staab round
