Still in Contention

Jennifer Kupcho of Westminster remained in the top 10 individually after Saturday’s second round of the Women’s NCAA Division I Finals in Eugene, Ore.

The two-time CWGA Player of the Year shot a 1-over-par 73 in round 2 at Eugene Country Club, dropping her into a tie for 10th place at 2-under-par 142. She trails leader Dewi Weber of Miami by seven strokes.

Kupcho, a Wake Forest freshman who qualified for the U.S. Women’s Open on Monday, made four birdies and five bogeys in Saturday’s round.

Sitting at No. 43 in the women’s World Amateur Golf Rankings, Kupcho is seeking her fourth consecutive top-10 finish in college golf.

Kupcho will play at least three rounds, but if she finishes 54 holes among the top nine individuals not on one of the top 15 teams that make the cut, she’ll play a fourth and final round on Monday. That’s when the individual champion will be determined.
