DADE CITY, Fla. – The Marshall women's golf team completed the second round of the Conference USA Championships on another stormy day at the Lake Jovita Golf and Country Club. Senior Stormy Randazzo had a great finish with four birdies in her final seven holes.
The Thundering Herd is in 10th place. The teams just barely managed to finish the second round before another wave of thunderstorms moved across the area. Round three begins Wednesday morning with Marshall's players teeing off between 8-8:40 a.m. Live scoring is provided by GolfStat.com.
"Proud of the fight from the team today," Herd head coach Brooke Burkhammer said. "It's been a tough tournament so far weather wise, but we continue to show grit. Excited to see how we finish up tomorrow."
Randazzo leads Marshall after two rounds and is tied for 25th. After her first six holes, the Rowlett, Texas native was sitting at plus 5. Randazzo then proceeded to hit par or better, including her four birdies, through the last 11 holes. She scored birdies in back-to-back holes at Nos. 9 and 10 and then again on Nos. 13 and 14. Randazzo finished with a 1-over 73, three strokes better than round one, and moved up seven spots on the leaderboard.
Senior Kerri Parks tallied two birdies including scoring a two on the par 3 No. 14, and moved up four places on the leaderboard. Sophomore Makena Rauch had two birdies in the round as did junior Torren Kalaskey, who also moved up six places with a four-stroke improvement from round one. Junior Jackie Schmidt had one birdie.
WKU remains in the lead by four shots over No. 33 North Texas and Middle Tennessee. Jana Melichova of Old Dominion took over the top spot on the leaderboard after scoring a 4-under 68 on Tuesday. She holds a two-stroke lead over Megan Clarke of WKU.
