ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH JIM BRACKEN
"We still left some shots out there today, but we made a 15-shot improvement from the first round so we obviously played better as a team. This is how we should be playing and we have one more round tomorrow and I'd love to see us move up a few more spots tomorrow."
The Matadors will be paired with Seattle for the final round which gets underway Thursday morning off the No. 7 and No. 8 tees at 9 a.m.
