ENDICOTT, N.Y., June 25 (UPI) -- Mark Wiebe retained the lead after two rounds of the Dick's Sporting Goods Open Saturday, firing a 4-under 68 for a two-shot cushion.

Wiebe shared the lead after Friday's first round and grabbed its sole possession Saturday, finishing 36 holes at 11- under-par 133 at En-Joie Golf Club.

A three-time Champions Tour winner, the 53-year-old Wiebe last tasted victory in a playoff two weeks ago at the Greater Hickory Classic.

First round co-leader John Huston posted a 2-under 70, dropping into second place at minus-9.

Alone in third place at 8-under 136 was Jay Don Blake (68).

One shot further back were Joey Sindelar and Bobby Wadkins, who both shot 3-under 69s.
