Second Round Scores

East Lansing, Mich. – Michigan State's women's golf team shot a 13-over par 301 and is in ninth place among 12 teams after the second round of play at the Folds of Honor Collegiate, being played at American Dunes Golf Club in Grand Haven.

The Folds of Honor Collegiate, an idea created by MSU men's golf Head Coach Casey Lubahn and Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, a former Kansas golfer who founded the Folds of Honor, was started five years ago as a men's tournament and this is the second year with a women's field. Since its inception in 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded nearly 73,000 scholarships totaling more than $340 million to the children of US Military members and first responders fallen or wounded in the line of duty.

Kansas maintains its lead, carrying a 5-under par 571 (284-287), six shots ahead of second-place Arizona (1-over par 577). Florida State is in third place at 2-over par 578, Texas A&M follows in fourth place (3-over par 579) and Duke rounds out the top-five teams (5-over par 581).

The Spartans are in ninth place at 21-over par 597 (296-301).

Sophomore Sarisa Pojanalai leads the Spartans, shooting a 2-over par 146 (73-73) to tie for 21st place. She has posted consecutive rounds of 1-over par 73.

Senior Keeley Marx and sophomore Lucia Valderrama are tied for 31st place with scores of 5-over par 149 respectively. Marx shot a 4-over par 76 on Tuesday (73-76), while Valderrama carded a 3-over par 75 (74-75).

Senior Ana Sofia Murcia is tied for 40th place at 9-over par 153 (76-77) and freshman Payton Haugen is tied for 42nd place at 10-over par 154 (77-77).

There are 22 different colleges and universities representing the 27 teams (15 men, 12 women) in the combined field. The field includes some of the best golf programs in the country, including eight ranked among the top-30 in the country in preseason polls, as well as Service Academies, a Division II team on each side and a men's and women's HBCU (Historically Black Colleges & Universities).

Live television coverage of the tournament can be seen on The Golf Channel, with daily broadcasts from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and again from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Rebroadcasts of the competition will also be aired. Last year's Collegiate reached nearly one million viewers across 12 live & replay telecasts, one of the largest unique audiences for an NCAA golf tournament on Golf Channel in 2025.
