PEORIA, Ill. -- After a near two-week break from competition, Bradley Men's Golf will spend Fall Break in the Buckeye State with the Braves taking part in the Flyer Invitational in Kettering, Ohio, Monday and Tuesday.

Bradley opened its 2019 Fall Schedule with three consecutive weeks of competition, wrapping up the busy stretch Sept. 30 & Oct. 1 at the Zach Johnson Invitational in Des Moines, Iowa. The Braves are one of 11 teams competing in the 2019 Flyer Invitational, which will be held Monday and Tuesday at the par-71 NCR Country Club South Course.

Monday's opening two rounds will feature an 8 a.m. (CDT) shotgun start, while Tuesday's tee times for the final round will also start at 8 a.m. (CDT). BradleyBraves.com will provide links to live scoring for all three rounds.

Joining Bradley in the field is Missouri Valley Conference rival Loyola along with Horizon League foes Cleveland State, Northern Kentucky, Oakland and Wright State. Mid-American Conference opponents Akron and Bowling Green help make up the tournament field, which also includes Marshall and Purdue Fort Wayne in addition to tournament-host Dayton.

Senior Alex Ciaramitaro has been Bradley's top finisher each of the last two outings and paces the team with a 75.11 season stroke average. Ciaramitaro owns a 74.33 average in the last two tournaments after he tied for 26th at the Zach Johnson Invitational.

Junior Jalen Hodges fired a season-best 72 in the final round of the Zach Johnson Invitational and is second on the squad in stroke average at 75.89 per round. He owns a team-best six rounds of 75 or lower on the year.

Freshman Josh Kirkham has joined Ciaramitaro and Hodges among Bradley's top three individuals in each of his first three outings as a Brave. The second round of tournaments have been the best for Kirkham, with the rookie carding his best round of each tournament in the afternoon of each opening day.

Fellow freshman John Stillman has carded a pair of 73's for his low round of the year, while Nick Armbrust was one shot from matching his season-low round of the year last time out in the final round of the Zach Johnson Invitational.

Bradley follows up the Flyer Invitational with the Little Rock Invitational Oct. 21 & 22 in Little Rock, Ark., in the team's final tournament of the fall.
