SEAL BEACH, Calif. - The Nevada women's golf team shrugged off a first-round 309 with a second-round 300 and moved into ninth place at the Gold Rush, hosted by Long Beach State.
Caryn Khoo came back with a 72 in the afternoon after a first-round 78 and sits in a tie for 24th place to lead the Wolf Pack. Four of Nevada's five players were better in round two as the Pack shaved off nine strokes overall between the rounds.
The Wolf Pack was boosted by a pair of eagles as Caryn Khoo eagled the par-5 sixth hole and Dupont eagled the par-5 ninth.

It was Dupont's first eagle at Nevada.
