PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – The No. 32 ranked University of Miami women’s golf team stands alone in first place as it heads into the final round of the 2015 Web.com Intercollegiate at the Marsh Landing Country Club.

“I’m very proud of my girls,” said head coach Patti Rizzo. “Each week another one steps up to the plate. We have one more day to go, but I feel very confident that they can do it.”

Sophomore Delfina Acosta leads all players with a two-round tally of nine-under-par, 135. The Argentina native shot back-to-back rounds under 70, posting marks of 67 and 68 in rounds one and two, respectively.

Acosta added to her birdie count as she posted 11 birdies on the day, posting seven in round one and four in round two. She now has 55 birdies on the year.
