Traveling as U-M's sixth man, freshman Jude Kim was subbed in for Jack O'Donnell, who shot an 86 in the opening round. Playing in his first event since February, Kim fired a career-low 79 to help the Wolverines with a counting round.
After an opening 74, senior Charlie Pilon fell off the pace in the second round with an 80 and is tied with Ito in the 26th position at 154. Junior Patrick Sullivan dropped seven shots from his first-round 86 with a 79 in the second and is 66th at 165.
