S&T, Komyati Hold Top Spot After First Day of GLVC Men’s Golf Championship

PERU, Ind. – Missouri S&T possesses team lead, while the Miners’ Cole Komyati leads the individual race after the opening day of the 2026 Great Lakes Valley Conference Men's Golf Championship at Rock Hollow Golf Club. Due to a lengthy lightning delay, the second round of stroke play was not completed and will be finished on Thursday. Despite the weather issues, golfers managed to log between 27 and 36 holes on day one.
