Coach Comments
"College golf tournaments are hard and to win, you're not just playing one opponent, in some cases 20 opponents per event. We will take them however they come," said Pack Director of Golf Josh Koschke. "The staff and players faced a lot of adversity and uncertainty if they were even going to be able to get to this event. To put all that aside and just go compete a long way from home is a testament to all the strong, positive and passionate people in their life at CSU Pueblo."

"We are absolutely thrilled with the victory!"

CSU Pueblo will take a week off before returning to the course April 5-6 at the Mustang Intercollegiate at the Palm Valley Golf Club in Goodyear, Ariz., hosted by Western New Mexico University.
