McLachlin's two-round score is 139, 1-under overall. The projected cut is even par.
Four other Hawai'i golfers — Tadd Fujikawa, Dean Wilson, Alex Ching and Kevin Hayashi — all missed the cut, where the field of 144 players is trimmed in about half for the final 36 holes of competition.
McLachlin, who shot 3-over 73 yesterday, was 1-over par after three holes today.
He then birdied holes 7, 9, 10, 12 to go to 3-under for the day. He then birdied the par-5 18th.
The $5.3 million tournament runs through Sunday.
Here are the breakdowns of Hawai'i golfers Fujikawa, Wilson, Ching and Hayashi:
Fujikawa: 74-70
Fujikawa, 17, the teen sensation who last year here became the youngest in 50 years to make a PGA Tour cut, shot an even-par 70 today.
He shot 4-over 74 yesterday and tried to rally today. He was 2-under for the day but double-bogeyed his 16th hole of the day (the par-4 sixth).
Wilson: 71-71, 2 over
Wilson, a member of the PGA Tour who shot 1-over 71 yesterday, shot another 1-over today. His two-round total is 2-over 142. A three-bogey slide over a five-hole span on his front nine boomed his chances of a good round.
Ching: 72-72, 4 over
Ching, who shot 2-over-par 72 yesterday, shot another 72 today. He double bogeyed his ninth hole to go from 1-under to 1-over.
Hayashi: 81-71, 12 over
Kevin Hayashi, who shot 11-over 81 yesterday, improved by 10 shots today, finishing with a 1-over 71. Hayashi had three bogeyes and two birdies in today's round.
