DALLAS - Oklahoma State's women's golf team opened play on Friday with a 305 total at the SMU Dallas Athletic Club Invitational to stand in a tie for sixth place.
The Cowgirls finished the day knotted with SMU at 17-over par. The two squads will begin tomorrow's second round a stroke out of fifth place. Kansas State posted a 294 to lead by a stroke over the field at the par-72, 6,301-yard layout.
Oklahoma's Chirapat Jao-Javanil grabbed the individual lead, posting a 3-under 69 to stand a clear of a trio of players at 2-under 70.
Among those to finish the day at 2-under par was OSU's Julie Yang. The freshman began her round on the par-5 10th and opened with the first of four birdies on the day. After another birdie at the 14th, Yang turned at 2-under 34 and added back-to-back birdies to start her second nine. The lone blemish on Yang's card came at the closing ninth where she posted a double bogey.
Joining Yang in the top 10 was senior Kelsey Vines, who finished the day tied for seventh place after carding a 73.
