Two local collegiate golf teams squared off (for fun) last Friday, with Cal State San Marcos women’s golf taking on Palomar College in a dual match. The Lady Cougars came out on top, defeating Palomar 304 to 317.

Four CSUSM players shot in the 70’s at the one-round event, led by Vanessa Chap’s 72. The freshman, who is off to an excellent start to her Cougar career this fall, shot the best round of any golfer on the day.

Second on the team and at the event was Tess Russell, who shot 74. Lisa Copeland, recent winner of the Grand Canyon Invitational, tied with teammate Felicia Titus for third with a round of 79.

Also competing for CSUSM were Cora Busy (81), McKenna Pautsch (81), and Amanda Rudd (88).

“I am very proud of our Lady Cougars,” commented Coach Cindy Naval. “We have already been challenged by Palomar for another match.”
