Albuqurque, NM - The 2008 NCAA Women's Golf Championships was suspended Wednesday during the second
round due to windy conditions. Southern California and UCLA are tied for the tournament lead at 8-over (584) when

Woori Shin is six-over par through six holes, Goedeken is seven-over par and freshman Kelly Fuchik is nine-over par through eight holes.
