EUGENE, Ore., Aug. 5 (UPI) -- Australian Stephanie Na had a 1-under-par 71 Tuesday to share the lead during the second round of stroke play at the 108th U.S. Women's Amateur.

Na shot a 69 in Monday's first round for a two-round total of four-under 140. She shares the lead with NCAA Player of the Year and last year's runner up, Amanda Blumenherst, who slumped to a 74 on Tuesday after shooting 66 in the first round.

The players remaining after the cut will be sorted by seed for five rounds of match play beginning Wednesday.

Third-place Kira Meixner had a 69 for a 141. Whitney Neuhauser (72) and Stephanie Sherlock (73) are tied for fourth at 142.
