After the opening day, Douglas put together a pair of rounds in the 70s, including a school-record 1-under 70 after the first eighteen. Over the closing eighteen, Douglas ended the afternoon with an 8-over 79 for his 36-hole total of 7-over 149 and sits ten strokes behind the tournament leader, Jade Dennill of the University of Victoria.
Along with Douglas, freshman Nicholas Schroeder (Silverton, Ore.) carded scores of 8-over 79 and 5-over 76 and sits second on the team with a combined score of 13-over 155.
