PUEBLO, Colo. – The Cal State Monterey Bay women's golf team sits in 16^th place at 35-over after the opening round of the NCAA West Preview held at the Pueblo Country Club.
 
"Disappointing round from beginning to end today," CSUMB head coach Jim Ragan said. "Team wise we had an abundance of unforced errors. The greens were quick and challenging just as they were for all the other teams in the tournament. We have a lot of work to do if we want to compete and have the success we are capable of. Hopefully, we learned from the mistakes we made today and are able to post a more respectable score tomorrow."
 
Leading the way for the Otters on day one was sophomore transfer Rori Fanning with a 7-over 78, carding two birdies to start the tournament in 36^th place.
 
Senior Cathy Tong is in 47^th place with an 8-over 79 and sophomore Morgan Pittman follows in 55^th with a 9-over 80.
 
Newcomer Audrey Cheng shot and 11-over 82 to post a 78^th place round and classmate Khivi Kaur rounded out CSUMB in 100^th with a 16-over 87.
 
The Otters will return to the course tomorrow, teeing off at 8:30 a.m.
