PALM DESERT, Calif. - The CSUN men's golf team opened the spring season by posting a team round of 10-over 298 which is tied for 12th after the opening round of the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate Tuesday at The Classic Club.
The Matadors are tied with Southern Utah at 298 but are just five strokes out of the top-10 after 18 holes. Grand Canyon holds the team lead after one round at 9-under 279, three shots better than host Wyoming. Individually, GCU's Gavin O'Neill (-4, 68) has a one-shot lead over a group of eight players, including CSUN's Antoine Sale at 3-under 69.
Sale, who led the Matadors with a 67.7 scoring average in the fall, had five birdies on Tuesday to finish the day one shot off the pace. Beginning the day on the No. 15 tee, Sale was 4-under through 12 holes after making his fifth birdie at the par-4 8th hole. He would finish with five pars and a bogey to finish the day at 3-under 69.
CSUNÂ SCORES
ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH JIM BRACKEN
"It's our first round of the spring, so there might have been a little bit of rust today. Antoine was very solid and Felix hit the ball well, he just couldn't get the ball in the hole. This should be our high round of the spring, so hopefully we got it out of the way early on. We have to be more consistent but we have such a long season ahead of us and I know what this team is capable of."
The Matadors will be paired with Utah Tech for the second round which gets underway Wednesday morning off the No. 11 tee at 9 a.m.
