"V is playing great so far this week," MSU Denver coach Stef Ferguson said. "She's playing steady golf and giving herself a lot of good opportunities. She needs one more good round and is right there in this tournament."

As a team, MSU Denver slipped one spot to sixth after compiling a four-player score of 24-over 312 after Sunday's opening 307. The Roadrunners are nine shots out of third.
 
Sydney Eye shot 6-over 78 on Monday for the Roadrunners' second-best score of the day.
 
"Syd played well today," Ferguson said. "And aside from the last few holes, she played really well."

Isabel Botero shot 80 and is now tied for 20^th overall at 10-over. Eye is 27^th for the tournament at 13-over.
 
Winnie Shaw and Mackenzie Carpenter were both 9-over on Monday and are among the players tied for 40^th overall at 18-over.
