Sophomore Mia Ginnetti played her first five holes 1-over par en route to a 4-over 35 to lead all competitors on the day. The matches were played on the par-35, 2,356-yard back nine at Springvale Golf Course. Ginnetti was backed up on River's top-4 scorecard by junior Chloe Holton (41), senior Nora Sheridan (43), and senior Sophia Loparo (48).
