On the men’s team leaderboard the Cascades are still in the hunt sitting in third place 17 strokes back of the Hawks and Boomerang d’Andre-Laurendeau. The Chargers find themselves in eighth place.

On the women’s leaderboard it was challenging day for PACWEST silver medalist Samantha Copeland of the UBC Okanagan Heat. She’s the top PACWEST golfer sitting in sixth place after shooting a disappointing 85 on Wednesday. That was six strokes worse than Day 1.
