HEAD COACH JIM BRACKEN SAID
"Overall, I thought we played ok, all the guys in the lineup played well. The 15th hole played was really slow today, and the last three holes after that took a toll on us. We need to be in the 280's as a team tomorrow, which I know we're more than capable of doing."

CSUN will be paired with CBU and UC Riverside for Friday's second round, which gets underway with De Luca teeing off at 7:39 a.m.
