PINEHURST, N.C. - Senior Ashley Lambert is the leader in the clubhouse and the Spiders are tied for fifth out of 17 teams after the first round of the Pinehurst Challenge held Monday at Pinehurst No. 8.
Lambert shot a 1-over-par 73 in the first round, carding an even-par 36 on the front nine and a 1-over 37 on the back of the 5,978-yard course. She had the lead by two strokes heading into Tuesday's final round. The tournament was originally scheduled for 54 holes, but due to frost in the morning, only one round was played Monday.
