His first round of college golf, Lydon’s eagle try on the 18th green was a 60, something only ha handful of college athletes have done before.

“I like to stay in the present on a golf course and not think about the past or future, because that’s when you start playing bad golf,” Lydon said. “So you stay in the present and focus on one shot at a time and that’s how you do your best.”
