PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. - The third-ranked Bruins remain in second place after two rounds at the Stanford Intercollegiate at Poppy Hills Golf Club, gaining one stroke on tournament leader Stanford.

Vu recorded a 1-under 70 with four birdies on #4, #7, #8 and #16 and three bogeys, while Wu had a 1-over 72 with three birdies (#4, #5, #13) and four bogeys.
