Norman, Okla. – The No. 15 Clemson women’s golf team concluded the second day of the Schooner Fall Classic with a 281 team score, putting them into ninth place. Host team Oklahoma sits in first after 36 holes while Texas, Alabama, Illinois and Baylor round out the top-five.
Golfing out of the top position, Ivy Shepherd powered the Tigers through the second round with an impressive second day five-under par, 65 score. She kicked off her day with an eagle on the second hole before finding a birdie on the fourth hole. Shepherd had two bogeys on the day coming on the sixth and ninth holes, but would follow up on the back nine with four birdies. Shepherd scored the best score of the second round across all competition and moved up 40 spots on the individual leaderboard into a seven-way tie for 10th.
