Cal State LA true freshman Daniela Andrade has been named CCAA Women’s Golfer of the Week after winning the opening event to start the 2023 fall season.
Andrade, a rookie from San Jose, took home individual medalist honors at the RJGA Shootout at Estrella at Goodyear, Ariz. on Tuesday. She tied a Golden Eagles program record with a final round 69 to win two-day, 36-hole, event in her collegiate debut. She shot a 71 on Monday and finished with 10 birdies and 22 pars.
Andrade’s 36-hole total of 140 is also a new program record and her 69 equals the 18-hole record set by Morgan Sjoerdsma in 2021. She became just the second Cal State LA golfer to win a tournament, joining Sjoerdsma, a two-time tournament winner.
Cal State LA finished third for third in the team standings at +14, six strokes behind winner Cal State East Bay and two back of Texas A&M International.
The Golden Eagles will return to action in October with a pair of tournaments in Waikoloa, Hawaii, Oct. 23-28.
