UPPERCO, Md. - Hood College's Michael Bushman (North Potomac, Md. / Quince Orchard) broke the school's 18-hole record and tied for first place to lead the Blazers at the Stevenson Spring Invitational.
Bushman turned in a 74, two strokes better than the previous school record. Five different Blazers had shot rounds of 76, but none since 2010. He is also the first golfer in school history to tie for a share of the tournament medalist honors.
The record-setting round tied him for first in the field at Piney Branch.
Andy Baker (Boyds, Md. / Poolesville) shot an 84, one stroke better than teammate Joe Hutchins (Edlersburg, Md. / Liberty). Patrick Cairo (Port Murray, N.J. / Warren Hills Regional) and Jonathan Knehans (Ridgecrest, Calif. / Burroughs) played matching rounds of 89.
Hood's team total of 332 matched last week's tally and tied for the fifth-best in school history.
The Blazers head to Messiah on April 16 for their final tuneup before the conference championships later this month.
