Temperatures were a tad chilly for early May, but the sun shone bright and the University of Louisville Golf Club in Simpsonville was packed with golfers from 18 squads for the first day of the NCAA Regional.
Louisville had a strong showing on the first day and currently sits fourth with a five-over-par score. They're just seven strokes behind leading Florida State, who is the only school to shoot better than par.
UCLA is two strokes ahead of the Cards while Michigan State holds just a one stroke lead over the hosts.
Lauren Hartlage seemed right at home with a three-under-par 69 for third place. Two players are tied for first just a single stroke ahead of Hartlage.
Hana Ryskova shot a 73 for one-over-par to tie for 17th place. Molly Lyne shot a 74 for a tie for 25th. Margot Bechadergue and Agustina Gomez-Cisterna were tied for 54th and 91st, respectively, shooting a 77 and 81.
Louisville begins the second day of the three-day event at 9:00 a.m., on hole one.
