BIRMINGHAM, Ala. –
Led by a 2-over-par 74 from sophomore Kelli Murphy, the Tigers are in 10th place through 18 holes at the conference tournament.
Murphy made 15 pars and one birdie in a very steady round with just two blemishes on the scorecard. A birdie at the 11th hole (her second) got her to 1-under, then she made six straight pars before a double-bogey at 18 dropped her to 1-over at the turn. She would then make par on eight of nine holes on the front side with just one bogey at the par-4 fifth.
