O’FALLON, Mo. – Danny Lewis took a share of second place individually as the Northern Kentucky University men’s golf team posted a sixth-place finish at the Triton Invitational.

Lewis, the seventh-ranked player in the Midwest Region according to Golfstat, carded a 2-under-par 142 (70-72) in the 36-hole event, finishing four strokes behind medalist Brooks Herrick (68-70—138) of Bellarmine.

It marked the best finish of 2008 for Lewis, a sophomore from Morrow, Ohio, who leads the team with a scoring average of 72 through the fall season. Five different NKU players have now finished in the top two in tournaments this fall, with three Norse golfers claiming medals.
