INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Behind a school-record round of 68 from freshman Sophie Kelner, the Cleveland State women's golf team is tied for third after the first round of the Butler Invitational that was played on Monday at the par-70, 6,016-yard Highland Golf & CC.

Kelner, who shot a 74 in her last round out at the Ball State Cardinal Classic, became the first player in program history to break 70. The old school record was 72, set three times, including earlier this fall by Allyson Hackman and Colleen Miller.

Kelner leads the event after the opening round, one shot ahead of Butler's Jenna Peters who shot a 69.

As a team, the Vikings shot a first round 306 and are tied with Western Kentucky for third place, three shots behind second place Youngstown State. Butler is in the lead at 293.

Allyson Hackman shot a 75 and is in the top-10, tied for eighth place, while Hannah Bennie carded an 80 and is tied for 24th place overall.

The final round of the event will be played on Tuesday morning.
