Two rounds are completed and the Kansas women’s golf team is in seventh place going into the final 18 holes of the Palmetto Intercollegiate in Kiawah Island, S.C.
East Tennessee is in the lead after the first two rounds with a total of 583 strokes. The Jayhawks have combined for 601 strokes thus far, but they are ahead of the only other Big 12 team in the tournament, Kansas State, which is sitting in a 10th place tie with 608 strokes.
Emily Powers, Quincy, Ill., senior, got off to a hot start Monday afternoon with a 74 in the morning followed by a 70 in the afternoon for a combined 144 strokes. Powers is currently in third place individually with a great chance to move up. Just one shot ahead is Sinead O’Sullivan from East Tennessee State and in first place is Jessie Hollandsworth from Maryland with a total of 137 strokes.
For Powers, this is the second tournament in a row where she has shot a 70 or below and the fourth time in her Kansas career.
Grace Thiry, Victoria, Australia, junior, is just five strokes behind Powers for the Kansas lead with a 149. Jennifer Clark, Kansas City, Kan., junior, and Meghan Bal, New Delhi, India, junior, are just one stroke apart at 154 and 155 strokes. Just behind Bal and Clark is Meghan Gockel, Dallas senior, with a 159.
The third and final round begins on Tuesday morning with a 18 hole shotgun.
