ACCORDING TO COACH MICHELLE WINKLER
"We finished so amazingly! Climbed up the leaderboard by four spots which is no easy task. Everyone stayed so focused and finished strong. We're so proud of Gracie on her T5 finish. She'll win another tournament very soon. Teams better watch out for us. We're coming in hot!"
CSUN will be back on the course on Oct. 9 as the Matadors travel to Spokane, Wash. for the Eagle Invitational hosted by Eastern Washington at Indian Canyon G.C.
