• Last time out, Fresno State finished as the runner-up at the Johnie Imes Invitational, hosted by Missouri. The 'Dogs carded an even-par 288 final round to hold steady in second place, backing up their 36-hole 3-over-par finish that left them in the same position.
• Four of the five Bulldogs in action placed in the top 25 of the 81-player field in Missouri (Wang, Bjorgvinsdottir, Simonsen and Ho).
