ST. GEORGE, Utah - CSUN's Julia Myklebust fired an opening round even-par 72 and is tied for third after round one of the Pizza Hut Lady Thunderbird Invitational Thursday at Sunbrook Golf Course.
Myklebust had six birdies in Thursday's opening round and was three-under after eight holes. Bogeys at No. 16 and No. 18 dropped her to one-under before she rebounded with birdies at No. 1 and No. 2 to get back to three-under. Finishing with three pars, one bogey and one double bogey over her final five holes left her at even-par 72 heading into Friday's second round.
The Matadors opened with a team score of 330 which leaves them 13th in the 16-team field. Seattle (299) is the first round team leader by three shots over both South Dakota State (302) and Arkansas State (302). Weber State (308) and Utah Valley (312) round out the top-five teams while Jessica Zelasko of Weber State holds a one-shot lead over Seattle's Samantha Bruce and a two-shot lead over Myklebust heading into round two.

COACH MICHELLE WINKLER SAID
"Today's weather conditions were extreme and ever-changing! At some points we experienced hail and 40 mph winds. After our round, we put in productive putting work and are looking to come back with ferocity tomorrow and Saturday. As a team, we're very proud of Julia's impressive six birdies and third-place standing."
The Matadors will be paired with CSU Bakersfield, Eastern Washington and Idaho State for the second round which gets underway Friday morning with a shotgun start at 9 a.m.
