NCAA Div. II: Nova Southeastern holds lead

ALLENDALE, Mich. (May 21, 2014) -- Three rounds in and Nova Southeastern remains on top at the 2014 NCAA Men's Golf Division II Championship at Meadows Golf Club. Behind a consistent performance from Santiago Gomez (71-71-73) and Ricardo Celia (71-77-68), Nova Southeastern enters the fourth and final round with a solid 14-shot lead over Barry. Barry remains perhaps the only team left in contention to pull off the major comeback in large part because of Adam Svensson's second-place pace. Svensson shot 71-75-68 over the first three days and is alone in second place individually. Scott Smyers added a Wednesday 69. Chico State is third on the strength of the play of Alistair Doherty (71-73-73) and Justin Wiles (73-72-72). The duo is tied for firth place. Central Missouri and Malone University are tied for fourth place, rounding out the five low teams. Florida Southern's Tim Crouch leads by a shot in the individual championship. He shot 68 Wednesday to add to his 74-71 start.
