Evelyn Orley of Duke shot a five-under-par 68 to tie the course record in the first round of the NCAA Division I women’s golf tournament Wednesday at the University of New Mexico South Course in Albuquerque, N.M.
United States International University’s Laurette Maritz, the nation’s top-ranked woman golfer, was in the middle of the pack after shooting 75 on the first day of the four-day, 72-hole tournament.
Orley tied the course record set by Arizona’s Martina Koch last fall.
