Central Florida (578), LSU (579) and No. 6 Florida (581) round out the top-five, while No. 8 Alabama (583), No. 3 South Carolina (586), No. 4 Arkansas (590) and No. 16 Duke (594) are well off the pace.
“We handled the windy condition pretty well again today," said Florida State head coach Amy Bond. "We made a few uncharacteristic mistakes during our round but managed to hang in there and grind over the last four holes. We didn’t get off to the best of starts but they battled and brought it back to under par to finish.
“I am proud of their fight and their focus in staying in the moment.”
Two-time first-team All-American Ingrid Lindblad of LSU turned in another superb round on Monday, following her opening round 66 with a 5-under 67. At 11-under 133, the native of Halmstad, Sweden is four-strokes clear of Central Florida's Tunrada Piddon, who is at 7-under 137 after turning in the low round of the day with a 5-under 67.
Lindblad opened her round by making three consecutive birdies out of the gates to move to 10-under for the tournament. She gave a stroke back following a bogey on the par-4 fourth hole but picked up birdies on holes 10 and 13 to move to 4-under on the day. Following her second bogey of the day on the 15th, Lindblad added birdies on 16 and 18 to finish off her 5-under round of 67.
Piddon, a junior from Thailand who won two individual titles as a freshman at Central Florida, was the hottest player on the course on Monday. She followed a bogey on the par-5 second hole with eight birdies over the next 12 holes and finished her round with three consecutive pars for a 7-under 65, tying UCF's school record for a single round.
Three Seminoles hold places in the top-10 on the individual leaderboard. Charlotte Heath carded her second consecutive 70 and sits in fourth place at 4-under 140. Amelia Williamson is tied for sixth at 2-under 142 (72-70) while Beatrice Wallin is tied for ninth at 1-under 143 (70-73).PAT POPPED OFF 👏
