Kayla Smith's 3-under-par 69 was one of four Tar Heel scores under par in the second round Tuesday as the University of North Carolina tied tournament leader Texas for the low team round of the day at the Texas A&M "Mo"Morial at the Traditions Golf Club in Bryan, Texas.
Krista Junkkari and Megan Streicher both shot 2-under 70s and Crista Izuzquiza posted 71 as the Tar Heels shot 280 in the afternoon round, 20 strokes better than their team result in the morning's opening round.
Carolina's 8-under 280 in the second round is the fifth best in UNC history and the best since a 9-under 279 in the 2017-18 Briar's Creek Invitation.
