“Sam Metzger played a fantastic round with 9 birdies today and this is the team’s best score of the season.” said Sarah Ashton, who was filling in for coach Aaron Solis.
Chad Visser was second for San Marcos with an even-par 71, Bennett Reichard had a 74, Bryce Quezada and Andrew Rice shot 78 and 79, respectively.
