<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"><b>CARLSBAD, Calif. –
</b>Playing in much tougher and windier conditions in Saturday’s second round of the NCAA Championship, the Baylor women’s golf team shot 11-over 299 and fell nine spots to a tie for 20<sup>th</sup> going into a pivotal third round at La Costa Resort and Spa. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Yurang Li followed up a 3-under 69 with a 1-over 73 and is tied for 16<sup>th</sup> at 2-under 142, just four off the pace set by 36-hole leaders Farah O’Keefe of Texas, Kajsalotta
Svarvar of Ole Miss and Stanford’s Mega Ortengren at 6-under 138. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Other than senior Silje Ohma, who matched Li’s 1-over 73, the Bears’ counting scores were Bridget Boczar and Charlotte Brook at 76 and 77, respectively. Ohma got it to 1-under with
back-to-back birdies at Nos. 6 and 7, but bogeyed the last two holes of the day. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">“I didn’t feel like my long shots were the best,” said Ohma, who is tied for 64<sup>th</sup> at 3-over 147. “But around the greens and on the green, it was really good. So, I gained
some shots there, for sure. I had a great approach shot on 7, which made it easy to make a birdie when your putt is a foot.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Ohma said she “holed a putt on 6” before hitting the middle of the pin with an approach shot on the par-4 7<sup>th</sup> hole and tapping in for her team-best third birdie of the
day. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">“She was tough today,” Baylor coach Jay Goble said. “I know she didn’t end up finishing the last two holes the way she wanted, but shooting 73 out here in the afternoon is a very
good score. I’m so proud of her.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Bouncing back from a stretch where she carded three bogeys in six holes, Boczar birdied the par-3 eighth hole and is 6-over 150 through the first 36 holes. Unable to get her putter
going, Brook parred her last seven holes after starting out 5-over through the first 11 and goes into the third round at 5-over 149. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">At 12-over 588, the Bears are tied for 20<sup>th</sup> with Auburn and Virginia and two shots below the projected cut line, with the field trimmed from 30 to the low 15 teams after
Sunday’s third round. Tennessee, Texas A&M and Florida State are tied for 15<sup>th</sup> at 10-over 586. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">“We can’t control what other teams are going to do tomorrow,” Ohma said. “I’m sure they all say they want to be in the 15. So, we just have to continue playing our game. And if that’s
good enough, that would be great. If it’s not, we can’t control anything more than one shot at a time.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>

<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Goble said what makes it difficult to climb the ladder and get into the top 15 is playing in the afternoon again, “which is the windy, tough conditions.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></p>

<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">“You’re going to have 10 to 15 mph cross winds all day, and it makes the golf course challenging,” Goble said. “We’re going to go back and do what we always do, look at our pins,
come up with our plan, do some recovery and get ready for a big day tomorrow.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; margin: 0in;">
