Mississippi State women’s golf team took a big lead up the leaderboard in the second round of The Ally at Old Waverly Golf Club.

The Bulldogs moved into fifth place after shooting 13-under par team score on Tuesday and are now at 3-under for the tournament. Final round of play begins Wednesday.

Tuesday’s second round was delayed due to inclement weather, but that didn’t stop four Bulldogs from shooting under par.

Samantha Whateley climbed 39 spots from her opening day after shooting a career-best round of 6-under, Avery Weed posted a 3-under round, moving her two-day total to a team-best 4-under, Izzy Pellot was 1-under in the second round and Lynn van der Sluijs posted her first under par score in a collegiate tournament.

Mississippi State's round of 13-under is the lowest any Bulldog team has shot in history at The Ally and is the second-best single round in event history.
