ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Texas Tech continued its strong play at the NCAA Ann Arbor Regional on Tuesday, firing the best round in the field to move into fourth place entering the final round at the University of Michigan Golf Course.

The Red Raiders posted a 1-over 285 in the second round — the lowest team score among the 12-team field Tuesday — to climb two spots on the leaderboard and move inside the top-five advancing positions entering Wednesday. Texas Tech sits at 5-over 573 (288-285) through 36 holes.

Ohio State leads the regional at 1-over 569, while Northwestern and No. 2 USC are tied for second at 2-over 570. No. 10 Duke currently holds the fifth and final qualifying spot at 8-over 576, three shots behind the Red Raiders.

Maja Ambroziak and Lauren Zaretsky continue to pace Texas Tech, as both golfers are tied for second individually at 3-under 139 through two rounds. The duo trails only Northwestern's Ashley Yun, who enters the final round at 7-under.

Ambroziak followed her opening-round 69 with a 1-under 70 Tuesday. She moved to 2-under for the day following back-to-back birdies late in the round before a bogey on her final hole dropped her back to 1-under.

Zaretsky made one of the biggest moves up the leaderboard in the second round, carding a 3-under 68 to jump from a tie for 15th into a share of second place. The senior played her final seven holes bogey-free at 3-under, including a birdie on her final hole to close the round.

Ambroziak and Zaretsky accounted for two of the eight under-par rounds recorded across the entire field Tuesday, helping Texas Tech produce the day's top team score.

Klara Hurtova is tied for 35th at 7-over 149 (74-75), while Cameron Freund improved into a tie for 40th at 8-over 150 following a second-round 72. Denisa Vodickova is tied for 45th at 10-over 152 (74-78).

The final round begins Wednesday at 7 a.m. CT, with the top five teams advancing to the NCAA Championship Finals at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, held May 22-27.
