By /

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – North Florida women’s golf jumped out to a fast start and continued playing well through 36 holes to be one off the team lead in second overall hosting the Momentum Transportation UNF Collegiate on Monday afternoon.

The Ospreys are looking to make a push to its first team title in their home tournament since 2022, as well as their first team title since winning in the ASUN Championship in 2022. UNF was the four-time team champion at its home event every season from 2019-2022.

Casilda Allendesalazar is not only the lead dog for the Ospreys, but also in the tournament field tied with Anna Andrysova from UL-Monroe. They both sit at 4-under 140 through a pair of rounds with a six-stroke lead over the next-best group players.

Allendesalazar looks to make it back-to-back medalist crown winners for North Florida after Christin Eisenbeiss brought in the program’s first individual title at a home tournament last year. Helen Zhou and Bradyn Smith, who is playing as a unattached individual, are tied for 12th overall with scores of 6-over 150 combined.
