BOULDER CITY, Nev. - Colorado School of Mines sits fourth through 18 holes at the 2024 RMAC Men's Golf Championships at Boulder Creek GC in Nevada.

The Orediggers finished at -5 after a team 283, with Colorado Christian (-19) and Colorado Mesa (-14) leading the field ahead of Fort Lewis (-10) and Mines, who had a tight one-stroke scoring spread among its four counters, all of whom were under par.

Lukas Taggart shot 70 to be -2 and in 11th place, while Max Lange, Ethan Adam, and Jake Welch all came home at -1 after carding 71s to be tied for 12th.
