MADISON, Wisc. -- Washington's women's golf team carded a season-best 298 Thursday in the second round of competition at the NCAA Championships. The Huskies moved into 15th place with a 36-hole total of 601. Arizona State is running away with the tournament holding a 13-stroke lead over second place Arizona. Both Arizona State and Arizona carded 288 in the second round on the 6,033-yard University Ridge Golf Course.
Washington was led by the play of another freshman in round two. Julia Smith stroked her season-best with a 72 after carding 82 in Wednesday's first round. Elisha Au, also a freshman, maintained her stellar play carding a 2-over par 74, after posting one-under in the first round. Au remains as the UW's top player in the tournament, resting for the second straight day in a tie for 12th place overall. The Huskies also got help from Jennifer Stapleton as she matched a season-best 75. Andrea Cordova completed the Washington with a 77 after an even-par first round. Cordova's 5-over par score places her in a tie for 36th overall.
Arizona State's freshman sensation Grace Park opened up a four stroke lead, shooting 65 for the second straight day. USC's Jennifer Rosales is second with 134. Ten players in the 100 person field are under-par after two rounds.
