The top individual for the Warhawks is sophomore Jahaanvie Walia, who is in a three-way tie for 35th-place with a 13-over-par score of 157. Walia opened the tournament with an 81 Sunday and followed with a 79 on Monday. Walia, who tallied eight pars and one birdie on Sunday, emerged with 13 pars and a birdie on the third hole in 18 holes on Monday, moving up 18 spots on the leaderboard.
 
Junior Shani White is one stroke behind her ULM teammate with a 14-over-par 158 (79-79) after two rounds. White posted nine pars and a birdie in the first round of the tournament and managed 12 pars in her second round, making her the only Warhawk with two sub-80 rounds.
