Stanford was solid. All 5 players were under par until Andrea Revuelta finished bogey-bogey to shoot even par 71 (which was Stanford's drop score).

The good story from today's round was the lead score of 68 by Megha Ganne. She missed a few tournaments during the spring season and then struggled at the ANWA, missing the cut by 8 shots. We don't know if she was dealing with injury, illness, something else, none of these. But it was good to see her game return today. 

Both Ganne and Kelly Xu are seniors who are playing their final tournament at Stanford as Stanford golfers. I imagine that it will be an emotional experience for them and for Coach Walker. Ganne and Xu are players we have watched grow up during their 4 year careers. Their roles have changed from freshman contributors on a team led by Rose Zhang to senior leaders themselves. They have been on teams that finished 3rd, 1st and 2nd at NCAAs. You cannot really ask for more from these two players in terms of their play and leadership. Now they have a chance one more time to lead Stanford to a title, first regionals playing at home, then down the California coast to La Costa. Let's hope for the happy fairy tale ending.

Results from today are now final.
1. Stanford -9
2. Oregon State -5
3. Pepperdine -1
4. Vanderbilt +2
5. Arizona +3
6. ASU +6
6. Missouri +6

Remember that the top 5 after Wednesday advance to nationals.

Great report thanks. Agree is very heartening to see Ganne come back strong after her recent stumbles.
