KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. - For the second straight day a member of the UCF women's golf team sits atop the leader board of the Edwin Watts / Kiawah Island Classic as freshman Elisa Aoki (Bradenton, Fla.) fired a 73 (+1) on Monday to hold a two round score of 146 (+2) and top a field of 215 golfers. As a whole, the Knights are in sixth place out of 43 teams competing in the enormous event.
