Lauren Mason signed for her second-straight 1-under card Monday in San Antonio
LUBBOCK, Texas – Texas Tech senior Lauren Mason signed a 1-under-par 71 card for the second-straight round Monday to lead No. 25 Texas Tech at the Maryb S. Kauth Invitational held at the Briggs Ranch Golf Club in San Antonio.
Â
Mason recorded three of her four birdies on the round during her final nine holes, including an easy tap-in at the par-3 3rd hole after her tee shot landed just a few feet from the cup. She is now 2-under for the tournament and in a tie for ninth overall.
Â
The Red Raiders could not make up any ground on the team leaderboard despite shooting 11 strokes better than Sunday's opening round. Tech carded a 12-over 300 round Monday, moving to 35-over for the tournament, which is four strokes back of Texas State.
Â
Mami Yamamoto carded Tech's second-lowest round of the day with a 2-over 74 that moved the junior into a tie for 56th overall at 10-over for the tournament. She is one stroke back of teammate Emma Ballard, who is in sole possession of 55th place following a 3-over round. Louisa Brunt recorded Tech's final score with an 8-over score.
Â
Top-ranked Arkansas strung together another under-par round to keep its spot atop the leaderboard as the Razorbacks are now 18 strokes in front of second place TCU and 21 ahead of Texas A&M in third place.
Â
The Red Raiders will have an 8:45 a.m. shotgun start Tuesday to begin the final round. Live scoring will be available throughout the day at www.BirdieFire.com.
