COACH JIM BRACKEN SAID
"It was kind of a frustrating day and we know we're a better team than we showed today. I told the team after the round that we just didn't play well today but there's certainly no panic on my part. I think we're going to have a good day tomorrow."
The Matadors will be paired with UC Irvine, Seattle and St. Mary's for the final round which gets underway Tuesday morning at 8:30 a.m.
