INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Thomas Peluchon's strong second round helped lift Roosevelt to a fifth-place finish Saturday at the Purgatory Invitational hosted by Taylor at Purgatory Golf Club in Indianapolis.

The sophomore from France shot a 1-under 71 in the final round Saturday to become one of only two players to shoot even par or better in the event. Peluchon climbed from 20^th place to eighth place with his steady round that began with two birdies in the first five holes. He bogeyed the eighth and ninth holes, but bounced back with a birdie on the par-3 17^th to finish his 71.

Pierre Heylen led the Lakers after Friday's first round with a 78 then fell into a tie for 16^th place in the second round. Marc Waller and Matthew Webb tied for 26^th place with matching 18 overs. Justin Rodriguez made three birdies on Saturday to improve his score by nine shots in the second round and finish in 35^th.
