Freshman Ann Burel made par on the first seven holes before a bogey on No. 8 but rebounded with a great approach shot on No. 9. She had a putt for eagle but just missed, tapping it in for birdie to make the turn at even par. Burel would make birdies on 10, 11 and 14 to go to 3-under before bogeys on No. 16 and 17 gave her a round of 1-under 71.

Mila Tang shot even par 73 and is tied for fifth place overall heading into the final round on Tuesday. Teammate Emma Parker started off with an eagle on No. 1 and was even par on the front nine, finishing the round 3-over 76 and in 11^th place. Brittany Odic finished the first round with an 81.

"Good solid round today by the team. The task for round two will be to stay the course and play one shot at a time and then move on," Eastern Florida State College women's golf coach Jamie Howell said.

Seminole State College is third, shooting a 300 with Palm Beach State College fourth. The final round will begin teeing off at 10 a.m. at Duran Golf Club.
