CSUN SCORES

Senior Eirik Thomassen matched CSUN's low round of the day with a final round 2-under 70. Thomassen had two birdies and 16 pars to move into a tie for 28th at 2-over 218.
After posting a team-high six birdies on Wednesday, Thomas Burou added four more on Thursday to finish the day at even-par 72. Burou wound up tied for 38th at 4-over 220.
Brandon McDonough also carded a 2-under 70 on Thursday to move up 26 spots on the leaderboard. McDonough had five birdies in the final round to finish tied for 51st at 6-over 222.
CSUN also played a pair of individuals as Dillon Jonke fired a one-under 71 on Thursday to finish tied for 75th 11-over 227 (75-81-71) while Liam Judkins tied for 95th at 19-over 235 (78-80-77).

ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH JIM BRACKEN
"We played solid golf as a team today and I'm really happy that the guys continued to battle back after an uncharacteristic first round. Felix got a few bad breaks but grinded out his round today and we shot 9-under the last two rounds and moved up the leaderboard so I can't complain. We're heading to Orange County early next week and will look to play another good tournament."

The Matadors will next compete at the VanHarte Orange County Collegiate at Monarch Beach Golf Links in Dana Point (Feb. 12-13).
