DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - The third-ranked Alabama women's golf team shot a 4-under-par 284 in the second round of the NCAA East Regional on the par-72, 6,271-yard Legends Course at LPGA International on Friday to take a four-stroke lead heading into Saturday's final round.
The top-seeded Crimson Tide answered a push from No. 21 North Carolina, who moved into second place with a 6-under-par round of 282 on Friday for a 1-under total of 575. Alabama shot 7-under par over the final seven holes of the second round to take a three-shot lead over the Tar Heels at 5-under 571.
"We got going at the end of the round and finally made some birdies," Alabama head coach Mic Potter said of Friday's second round. "We were just having kind of an okay round, and with the play of North Carolina we slipped into second place for awhile, but we made some birdies coming in to finish strong."
Freshman Stephanie Meadow vaulted to the top of the leader board by making four birdies on the final seven holes to take a four-shot lead on the individual leader board at 6-under 138 after 36 holes. The native of Jordanstown, Northern Ireland, carded birdies on three, four, five and eight to go along with birdies on No. 10 and No. 14 and a bogey on No. 1 to post a 67.
