LEWISTON, Idaho – Baylee Hodgman sits three shots out of the lead, as the Oregon Tech women's golf team closed out Round 2 of the Cascade Conference Championships, presented by U.S. Bank, at Lewiston Country Club.
 
The Lady Owls (305-311 – 616) fell from first to third-place after the middle 18 holes, as British Columbia (305-291 – 596) shot a 3-over-par team score to take the lead, with host Lewis-Clark State (314-299 – 613) taking advantage of the home course to surge past Tech. Both Southern Oregon (331-319 – 650) and College of Idaho (330-320 – 650) are a distant fourth.
 
Hodgman (73-78 – 151) shot a 6-over-par score in Round 2 and trails a trio of UBC golfers – as Keira Hou (76-72 – 148) and Grace Yao (78-70 – 148) hold the lead, a shot ahead of Jessica Ng (75-74 – 149).
 
Freshman Alyssa Kauleinamoku (79-75 – 154) had the Owls best round of the day, carding a 3-over-par 75, climbing into a tie for tenth. Madison Dick (75-80 – 155) is 12th, Madie Hepner (78-79 – 157) is 14th and Sydney Dick (81-79 – 160) is 18th heading into Wednesday's final round.
