Railsplitter Tre Mullins shot a tournament record. GREENEVILLE, Tenn. --- Lincoln Memorial’s Tre Mullins shot a tournament-record six-under par 65 to take the first round lead at the 2013 Tusculum College Fall Classic, which is being held at the par-71, 6,763-yard Link Hills Country Club. LMU posted a tournament record team score of 272 (-11), six shots ahead of host Tusculum, who tied a school-record with its six-under par team tally of 278 on Monday. Tennessee Wesleyan is third with 287, while Walters State is fourth at 289.

Mullins posted a one-under par 34 on his opening nine holes and followed that with a sizzling five-under 31 on his inward nine to break the previous Classic record of 66, held by four others, including LMU teammate Rand Wasson. Wasson shot a 66 in last year’s second round of the Fall Classic and posted another 66 today and is one-shot behind Mullins. Wasson opened with a four-under par 31 on his outward nine. Mullins’ 65 is also tied for the sixth-best individual score by a South Atlantic Conference golfer.

Lincoln Memorial has a 20-shot lead for the combined championship as the LMU men and women posted a 582. Tusculum is second with 602, followed by Mars Hill (622), Catawba (627), Lenoir-Rhyne (635) and Spartanburg Methodist (683).
