Morrison finished her afternoon on the par 72 6,066 yard course with an 83 (+11) scorecard which put her in a tie for 53rd place out of 72 golfers. She putted home eight pars to go along with one birdie during her first 18 of the week.

Morrison is 10 strokes behind the four co-leaders, Maria Regina Gonzalez of Saint Mary's (Tx.), Ann Parmerter of Dallas Baptist, Pilar Echeverria of the University of Indianapolis and Mary Weinstein of Regis (Colo.) who shot a 73 (+1).
