BOCA RATON, Fla. — A solid second round on Monday has the No. 17 St. Mary's University Women's Golf team in fourth place after two rounds.

Four of the five golfers shot better in the second of three rounds, and both

Perkins, a sophomore, tallied a round of 75 in the morning and took four strokes off that for a 71 in the afternoon and into a tie for fourth place. The 71 ties the lowest round of her career, and it is the third time she's posted it this season.
