PEORIA, Ariz. – The Oregon women's golf team bounced back from a tough first round with a phenomenal second round performance on Sunday at the Westbrook Invitational, shooting a 10-under 278 in the second round at Westbrook Village Golf Course.
How it Happened: After a tough 15 over in the first round of play for the Ducks, freshman Alexis Phadungmartvorakul and junior Kathleen Scavo led the way in the second round to help improve the team's score by 25 strokes. Oregon's 278 in the second round was tied for the third-lowest single-round score of the day.

After shooting 4 over in round one, Scavo came alive in round two, carding six birdies to score 4 under. Scavo is currently even with par after day one and tied with Phadungmartvorakul for 36th on the individual leaderboard.
Freshman Madi Daniel carded four birdies in the second round to shoot under par for the first time as a collegiate with a 1-under 78. Combined with her round one score, Daniel is plus-5 overall.
Junior Petra Salko shot 4 over during round one, and then bounced back with five birdies to shoot an even-par 72 in round two.

On round one of the tournament...
"They played with zero urgency this morning. Some underestimated the speed of the greens early on."
On round two of the tournament...
"Clearly they have the ability and the skills to go low – they showed that this afternoon. Really proud of the fight they showed this afternoon. Scavo got her swagger back, and Alexis played the way she is capable of. Very proud of Madi for breaking par in only her fifth collegiate round ... I know they believe they can go low and are in a good mind frame for the final round."
