QUOTE

 
Cal State East Bay men's and women's golf head coach Alan Sue following the tournament:
"This was a good tournament on a very demanding golf course. There were some situations that we struggled to navigate on this course and we will address those in practice. Despite those challenges, they stayed positive and were determined to battle to the end. Julika led the team with an amazing performance. She was consistent in al phases of her game this week. Her mental game was the best I've ever seen and it is something she can build on for her future success."
