Emma Albrecht turned in a second consecutive even-par 71 to join Heck in a tie for 28th (71-71=142). Albrecht’s second round included an eagle at the par 5 18th (her ninth hole of the day).
 
Isabella DiLisio took two strokes off her first-round score to also card an even-par 71 on Saturday. Sitting at two over with five holes to play, she birdied the par 4 fifth and par 4 seventh en route to finishing at even par.
 
Maddie Rose Hamilton finished with a one-over par 72 to also score for the Irish. Her day included three birdies, 12 pars, two bogeys and a double.
