The Mustangs held second place after a six-under round one that saw SMU trail hosts and reinging national champion Northwestern (ranked 10th in the nation) by four strokes and lead third place Duke (ranked No. 9 in the nation) by one stroke. The Mustangs were in contention for the lead throughout the second round before ending the day trailing Northwestern by two strokes.
