Cal State San Marcos Freshman Delgado named Women's Golfer of the Week

Cal State San Marcos’ Diana Delgado was the top CCAA player at the PLNU Invitational as she earned the honor as the conference’s Women’s Golfer of the Week.

Delgado made a splashing collegiate debut with a three-over par 147 result while leading No. 21 CSUSM to a team win at the tournament hosted by Point Loma on Monday and Tuesday.

The freshman from West Covina carded 74-73 scores to finish just one-back of Biola’s Brady Turnquist with the difference being Turnquist shot one-under on Tuesday and Delgado was one-over.

With two other Cougars in the top seven in the standings, Delgado and her teammates also celebrated a team victory. CSUSM (+21, 597) was nine strokes better than host Point Loma. Four other CCAA teams also competed in this tournament, with the next best, Cal State LA, in fifth at +56.

This marks the fourth consecutive golfer of the week award for Cal State San Marcos dating back to the 2019-20 season, when Jaime Jacob won seven times including the final three.

CSUSM will travel to Goodyear, Ariz., on Sept. 27-28, for the RJGA Shootout at Estrella.
