KAPOLEI, Hawai'i - Sophomore Fernanda Sosa Stackpole carded a 4-over 76 in round two to remain in the top-30 while the CSUN women's golf team remained in 13th place following the second round of the Rainbow Wahine Invitational Tuesday at Kapolei Golf Course.

After posting a team round of 315 on Monday, the Matadors improved by four shots on Tuesday with a score of 311. CSUN's two round total of 626 is nine shots back of 10th place Northern Colorado (617). Colorado State holds the 36-hole team lead at 575 while the Rams' Andrea Bergsdottir and Gonzaga's Cassie Kim are the individual co-leaders at 4-under 140.

Sosa Stackpole had three birdies on the day and was 1-under after her opening four holes. Five bogeys over her next 10 holes dropped her to 4-over with four holes remaining. Sosa Stackpole then finished birdie-par-birdie to get to 2-over before a double-bogey six on her final hole left at 4-over 76 on the day and 8-over 152 for the tournament.

COACH MICHELLE WINKLER SAID
"Today, the wind won. Fernanda and Grace played well, but overall we need to do a better job thinking around the golf course. We have a lot of work to do this winter, but I know if we keep pushing and focusing on our mental game, we will improve our tournament averages in the spring."

All teams will tee-off Wednesday's final round at 9:00 a.m. local time with a shotgun start. CSUN will open the final day on the 16th through 18th tees.
