As a team, LBSU sits tied for fifth place on the leaderboard with 3-under bar after one round of the Lake Las Vegas Intercollegiate.

Playing in just his second competition of the year, Zeman, who is competing as an individual, shot a 66 as he birdied seven holes jumping to the front of the leaderboard. He is currently tied with Little Rock's Archie Smith as both are 6-under par after the first round.
