CSUNÂ SCORES
ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH JIM BRACKEN
"We got a couple of good scores today but also had to count a couple of not-so-great scores. I feel like we've improved every tournament which is encouraging. We're a young and talented team but have to continue to stay positive, work hard, and be more consistent. Our next event at Pacific is a good field that will be a good test for us."
The Matadors will next compete at the Visit Stockton Pacific Invitational at Stockton Golf and Country Club (Oct. 14-16).
