Round Two Results
GREENVILLE, S.C. – After a season low 6-under 282 on day one of the Lady Paladin Invitational, the Blue Raiders dropped into fifth place at the end of day two with a 7-over 301.
"We didn't really have the day we wanted to, but we knew it was going to be tough to follow the score we posted yesterday," Head Coach Chris Adams said. "Hanley [Long], Samantha [Gotcher] and Jenna [Burris] played well with some birdies to overcome a couple of tough holes.
"We just need to focus on having another strong round tomorrow and see if we can move up the leaderboard."
Hanley Long knocked a stroke off of her first round score, carding a 1-over 73 in round two. She is 3-over (74-73=147) for the tournament, and tied for 34th.
Jenna Burris sits highest on the leaderboard for the Blue Raiders in a tie for 7th place after her 2-over 74 in round two put her at 1-under (69-74=143) through 36 holes.
Samantha Gotcher shot a 3-over 75 in round two and is tied for 29th in the field with a two-day total of 2-over par (71-75-146).
Lacie York fell into a tie for 34th after round two, matching Long's 36-jole socre of 3-over par (68-79=147).
Freshman Katherine Holmes is 11-over (76-79=155) for the tournament and sits in a tie for 76th while classmate Emily Lankford, playing as an individual, is 20-over (82-82=164).
Holmes will tee off first for the Blue Raiders in round three, going off of the first tee at 7:45 a.m. CT. She will be followed by York, Long, Gotcher and Burris in nine minute intervals.
Lankford will go off with the individuals at 8:30 a.m. CT on the tenth tee.
