ORLANDO, Fla. – The Wake Forest Women’s golf team is just three strokes off the lead heading into the final round of the UCF Challenge at Eagle Creek Golf Club. Veterans Rachel Kuehn and Emilia Migliaccio paced the Deacs in a steady second round.
 
Kuehn stole the show to close out the day at Eagle Creek Golf Club, birdying her final five holes of the day.

One bogey before the run was erased with two more birdies on her second nine, as she dropped-back-to-back putts on the par-five 13th and par-four 14th holes. The senior was the low Deac of the day, going three under for her round, and will enter the final round eight under par.
