Beneath cloudy skies and rain showers, one team shined bright at the 41st Carolinas Women's Four-Ball Championship at Prestwick Country Club. The team of Caroline Cahill of Wilmington, N.C. and Madison Isaacson of Greensboro, N.C. shot an even-par 72 and hold a one shot lead over the rest of the field.

Steadiness was the ticket for the duo and they carded par on every hole on the front nine except one. After the pair made the turn, two rain delays stopped play, but Cahill and Isaccson never lost momentum. The future teammates at UNC-Wilmington continued consistently carding pars on the back nine, and Cahill highlighted the round with a birdie on the fifteenth hole.

Two groups sit one stroke back and on the leader group's heels. The pair of Kaley Barts of Apex, N.C. and Mogie Adamchik of Raleigh N.C. and the pair of Kennedy Gooding of Lexington, S.C. and Gracyn Burgess of Lexington, S.C. both shot a one-over-par 73 in the opening round. 

In the Senior division, two pairs finished the first round in red numbers. Kim Briele of New Bern, N.C. and Patty Moore of Charlotte, N.C. lead the division with a two-under-par 70 and carded five birdies. One shot behind Briele and Moore are Angela Stewart of Greenville, N.C. and Susan Beaupied of Pittsboro, N.C. with a one-under-par 71.
 

The championship is conducted at 36 holes of four-ball stroke play.
