Morgan, who followed up Monday's opening round 78 with the one-over par round of 73, is among six individuals competing in the event, which also features a field of 12 teams battling for a berth in the 24-team NCAA Championship, which will be held May 17-22 at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, Calif.  The top five teams and one individual on non-qualifying teams will advance.
