RICHMOND, KY - Toledo is in second place and just two strokes behind front-runner Akron following Friday's first two rounds of the EKU Colonel Classic. The event is being held at the par-72, 5,809-yard Arlington Golf Club.
"It was certainly a fun day out there for us today," Toledo Head Coach Nicole Hollingsworth said. "We played very well, and it's been nice to see the improvement we've made week after week. Hopefully we can post four good scores tomorrow and come away with another tournament title."
