Host Valparaiso led by a dozen when play was suspended at three under par, but still had holes to play, while DePaul was final for the day at nine over par. Cleveland State and Loyola Chicago are tied for third at +11 and Purdue Fort Wayne is at +12 to round out the top five in the 17-team field.

Play is scheduled to resume at 8 a.m. Tuesday with the completion of the second round, followed immediately by the final round.
