The Lady Toppers shot a 2-under 286 as a team in Monday's second round – their lowest single round of the season – for a 577 total at the par-72, 6,088-yard Diamante Country Club.
That puts them five strokes ahead of second-place Bradley (582) and eight shots ahead of third-place UTEP (585).
The tournament title will be decided in Tuesday's final round, which begins at 8:30 a.m. CT with a shotgun start.

WKU junior Megan Clarke, the event's defending champion, also made a charge Monday with a 4-under, season-low 68 to pull into a tie for sixth at 143.
