CANTON, Mass. - Sophomore Gracie Piar is tied for third at 4-over 148 and the CSUN women's golf team is in 12th place after 36 holes of the Boston College Red Bandanna Invitational Monday at Blue Hill Country Club.
Piar opened the rainy day with a 1-over round of 73 in round one that included four birdies, nine pars and five bogeys. Starting the day on the No. 11 tee, Piar was even after two holes before a pair of bogeys dropped her to 2-over. She remained 2-over through 13 holes before two birdies, two pars and a bogey over her final five holes moved her 1-over for the round. Piar would add three more birdies in round two as she finished at 3-over 75 and 4-over 148 for 36 holes.
As a team, the Matadors had team rounds of 324 in round one and 311 in round two to post a Monday total of 635 which is 12th in the 16-team field. Host Boston College (595) is the team leader through two rounds while Emily Byrne of Long Island is the individual leader at even-par 144. Piar heads into the final round just four shots off the lead.

COACH MICHELLE WINKLER SAID
"Today was cold and rainy, so the course played super long. We're not making excuses, just looking ahead to tomorrow to clean up some of our bogeys. I'm so proud of Gracie for not only how she played, but also how she's improving her par 5 scoring. That's a big stat we're working on, and her continuous efforts in practice are really starting to show. We're going to be cheering her on across the golf course to bring home her second W. She can do this!"
The Matadors will be paired with Fairfield and Stonehill College for the final round which gets underway Tuesday morning beginning at 8 a.m.
