Dragon Theam and John Heckel Jr. had Army's best rounds on Friday and are tied for 10th on the player leaderboard after a 2-over par 74.
Theam chipped in for birdie on the 18th to improve his score and had three birdies in his final five holes.
Heckel had a great start to the round, going 2-under through the first nine.
Marshall Daniel had a great start to his round and was 1-under through 15 holes, but finished over par to start the tournament.

Coaches Corner with Chad Bagley
"Pleased with the quick start this morning, but we didn't finish the round like we wanted. All six of our players had some really good stretches of golf today. We need to try and extend those solid runs and eliminate how many shots we give back to the course. We'll be excited to get back out on the course tomorrow for round two."

NEXT UP
The Black Knights start Round Two of the Patriot League Championship at the Steel Club on Saturday morning. Katsenes will lead things off for Army at 8:54 a.m. and Theam the last to tee off at 9:39 a.m.
