CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas -- Freshman Danielle Lemek (Doniphan, Neb./Doniphan-Trumbull) matched a season-best with an even-par 72 in her first round of the spring and is in the lead after one round of play for the Bradley women's golf team at the Islander Classic. 

Windy conditions made for difficult play and the afternoon's second round was suspended after Monday's opening round due to wind gusts approaching 60 miles per hour.  The Braves are tied with Houston Baptist for 11th, following an opening round 337. 

Lemek was one of 14 players to shoot in the 70's Monday morning, matching her season-best 72 at the par-72 Corpus Christi Country club and holds a one-shot lead on Chaslyn Chrismer (73) of North Texas atop the individual leaderboard.  Nikki Dunn of tournament-host Texas A&M-Corpus Christi is third at 76 and two players are five back of Lemek in fourth at 77.

Sophomore Thea Hedemann (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan/Walter Murray) shot an 86 to finish the opening round in a tie for 51st and is six shots out of the top 20.  Junior Cassandra Marschall (Marshfield, Wis./Marshfield/Wisconsin-Green Bay) is three behind Hedemann in a tie for 61st at 89, while sophomore Christie Lin (Calgary, Alberta/Sir John G Diefenbaker) shot a 90 and is tied for 65th. 

Freshman Jenna Roadley (Winnipeg, Manitoba/Sturgeon Heights) rounded out the team scoring for the Braves with a first-round 91 and closed the day tied for 67th.  Freshman Lindsey Levin (Chicago, Ill./The Latin School) is in the field as an individual and is tied for 59th after a first-round 88. 

Lamar and Missouri State are tied for the lead in the team standings at 317 with the pair holding a four-shot lead on third-place North Texas (321).  Oral Roberts and Sam Houston State closed the first day of play tied for fourth at 322 with Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and Oklahoma City tied for sixth at 325. 

Stephen F. Austin is 13 shots behind the co-leaders in eighth (330) and Central Arkansas followed in ninth at 332.  McLennan Community College shot 334 to finish Monday's round in 10th, while Bradley and Houston Baptist were tied for 11th at 337.  Texas-Pan American is eight shots back in 13th (345) and Texas A&M-Kingsville completes the field in 14th at 365.

The teams will close out the Islander Classic Tuesday with one round of play, beginning at 8:15 a.m.
