THOUGHTS FROM COACH OLSON
"Both teams were able to take away a very positive experience from a great field and a beautiful course in Huntsville. The Cougars were well represented up front by Sankalp on the men's side and Angela and Hailie on the women's side. Our pack spreads slipped considerably, and we'll look to make some corrections there as we head into the CCAA Championships."
WHAT'S NEXT
CSUSM will close out its regular season next weekend at the Highlander Invitational on Oct. 19th in Riverside.
