Garcia Cards 69 In Final Round to Win Spring Invitational


BAKERSFIELD, Calif. –
Junior Levi Garcia carded a three–under par 69 in the third round to win the CSUB Spring Invitational Tuesday at Bakersfield Country Club. Garcia's final total of 213 was a two–stroke cushion over Cal Poly teammates Pace Johnson and Jarod Knight who each finished with a total 215 after final rounds of 75 and 74, respectively. The Mustangs' combined efforts, however, proved to be too much for the Roadrunners to overcome as Cal Poly took the team title by five strokes (869) over CSUB (874).

The win was Garcia's second individual title of the season after claiming low honors at the Purple and Red Invitational in Layton, Utah, back on September 29, 2009. His 69 tied junior Kyle Morrison's second round score as CSUB's low rounds of the tournament. Morrison shot an even–par 72 in his final round to take fifth. Classmate James Moseley tied for eighth, shooting 75 in the third round. Junior Daniel Petta tied for 20th with a one–under par round of 71. Freshman Matt Hammons finished in a tie for 29th with a third round 78. Playing as individuals, sophomore Jason Errecart placed 19th with a final round 75 and junior Kirk Harper placed 39th with a 78 third round total.

The match became a two–team race as CSUB and Cal Poly separated themselves from the field. The 'Runners cleared third place CSU San Marcos by 12 strokes.

The Roadrunners will head to Cal Poly on Thursday, Mar. 25, for the two–day Lampkin Grip Match Play tournament.
