After climbing nearly two dozen spots up the leaderboard during the final round of play, Cal State San Marcos senior Justin Vrzich has been named CCAA Golfer of the Week for Sept. 25-Oct.1.

The El Cajon native jumped up 23 places with a final round 1-under 71 at the RGJA South Central Fall Preview in Albuquerque, N.M., to lead the Cougars. Vrzich tallied 75-76-71–222 in the two day event, finishing with a tournament best 37 pars along with three other golfers. Tuesday’s closing round also featured four birdies on the day. This marks Vrzich’s first career CCAA weekly award.

As a team, Vrzich paced the Cougars, who are receiving votes in the last GCAA coaches poll, to 12th in the standings.

Cal State San Marcos was the lone team in action last weekend, and the Cougars now enjoy an idle week before competing in the Sierra Central Wildcat Classic in Chico on Oct. 14-15.
