The TCU men's golf program concluded its first day of action tied for 15th place at the 2008 NCAA Division I Central Regional Championships as the Horned Frogs notched an 18-hole tally of 302 at The Scarlet Course in Columbus, Ohio, on Thursday (May 15) afternoon.

The Frogs - who are appearing in their 19th consecutive NCAA Central Regional Championship - finished with an 18-over-par score of 302 - which places them in a tie for 15th place with Eastern Kentucky, Kent State and Wichita State.
