ORLANDO, Fla. – Junior
Kaew Preamchuen carded a 1-under par 71 to lead the Kennesaw State women's golf team during Tuesday's second round of the UCF Challenge that is being contested at the par-72, 6,349-yard Eagle Creek Golf Club in Orlando, Fla.
Preamchuen's round included 15 pars and two birdies as she moved from a tie for 66th to a tie for 35th. She is currently at 3-over par 147 after 36 holes.
The Owls are in 18th place after posting a 9-over par 297 and are 21-over par (597) for the tournament. Host UCF continues to lead the 19-team field with a 9-under par score of 567, two shots better than Miami (569).
Iowa State (573) is third and followed by East Tennessee State (288) and Augusta State (579), which rounds out the top five.
"Overall we improved our team score by three shots from yesterday," Kennesaw State head coach
Rhyll Brinsmead said. "Although we dropped in the team standings, I told the team we have no control over what other teams shoot.
"I'm fairly satisfied with the majority of our play but we need to be more precise and aggressive," Brinsmead added. "Tomorrow is a very important day for us. It is essential we get some quality head-to-head wins. I am very pleased with Dulcie (Sverdloff) and Kaew's play today, but the best is still to come."
Sverdloff posted an even-par 72 and is tied for 45th, while freshman
Laura Estefenn is tied for 80th, and juniors
Ines Lescudier and
Mette Kryger Pedersen are tied for 89th.
The UCF Challenge concludes Tuesday with final-round action as Kennesaw State will be grouped with Florida International and Wisconsin. The Owls will tee off from holes 14 and 15 beginning at 8:30 a.m. (ET). All the action can be followed live on the Internet at
