BREWSTER, Mass. (Oct. 27, 2013) – Sophomore Harry Hulme (Manchester, England) shot a three-over-par 75 to lead UMass Lowell to a share of 10^th place after round one of the New England Intercollegiate Golf Association (NEIGA) Championship at The Captains Golf Course.

UMass Lowell, the defending NEIGA champion, compiled a score of 312 as it shares 10^th place with the University of New Hampshire and Elms College. Central Connecticut State sits atop the leaderboard with a score of 288 while the University of Rhode Island is the runner-up with a 297.
