COACH JIM BRACKEN SAID
"This is the first tournament back for a majority of the teams so I'm sure everyone is working off some rust. Only one guy shot under par today so that tells you something. I thought we'd play a little better in the second round but if each of my guys could eliminate three holes we'd be in much better shape. I'm hoping we play a little more relaxed tomorrow and don't make as many silly mistakes."
CSUN will be paired with California Baptist, UC San Diego and UC Santa Barbara for Tuesday's final round which will tee off with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m.
