Mikaela Parmlid of USC won individual honors with a 218, one stroke better than opening day leader Cassandra Kirkland of Arizona.

Nebraska's Merynn Ito, a 2001 graduate of 'Aiea, finished tied for third at 223.

UH's highest finisher was freshman Tara Chappell, who shot 237, good for a tie for 25th.

Berg, a 1998 Punahou graduate and three-time All-Big Ten setter for Minnesota, will remain at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs until at least May.
