TUCSON, Ariz. – Texas A&M women's golfer Zoe Slaughter jumped seven spots and tied for ninth after the second round of the MountainView Collegiate at the MountainView Golf Club on Saturday.
Slaughter (70-70—140) shot 2-under for the second-consecutive round and posted a team high four birdies. The sophomore led the No. 19 Aggies (281-284—565) into fourth place behind No. 8 San Jose State (-25), No. 23 Texas Tech (-24) and No. 5 Oklahoma State (-22). The Maroon & White shot 4-under as team with five players in the top 25 of the player leaderboard.
"Yesterday, we didn't have the best start but finished strong. Today it was a little bit of the opposite," head coach Gerrod Chadwell said. "We have a chance tomorrow to put it all together just like we did last week at the Clover Cup. We have a very positive mindset and know that everything is out in front of us."
Blanca Fernández García-Poggio (68-73—141) went 1-over on day two and tied for 15th. Jennie Park (71-71—142) went 1-under and secured her eighth-consecutive round under par, dating back to the ICON Invitational (Feb. 21-22). Along with Jennie Park, Brooke Tyree (73-69—142) tied for 24th. Tyree, who competed as an individual, went 3-under and jumped 16 spots in the second round.
Adela Cernousek (74-70—144) went 2-under, doing her damage on the back nine where she posted two birdies and parred the other seven holes. Amber Park (72-75—147) rounded out the group in 47th.
The Aggies sat in front of No. 15 Arkansas (-10) and No. 6 Florida (-5). Han-Hsuan Yu (Oklahoma State), Kajal Mistry (Arkansas) and Natasha Oon (San Jose State) all tied for first at 9-under.
