Larson opened with an 86 on Sunday, and her 168 total for 36 holes leads the team by four strokes over freshman Lindsay Dodovich, who followed a team-low 85 with an 87 on Monday. Jen Lee (84) and Nicole Mischler (86) also made significant improvements on their first-round scores.
Tournament host College of Charleston fired a 288 team score to move into the lead with a 588 total. Troy is second at 598, and first-round leader North Florida slipped to third place at 601.
Laura Fuenfstueck of College of Charleston shot 71 on Monday and is 3-under for the tournament. Samford's Bailey Gray (-2) is the only other player in the field under par. Mary Dawson of North Florida and Jessica Welch of Jacksonville are even with one round to play.
