Notes

The Bulldogs head into their final tournament of the fall. The Bulldogs' top performance came at the Nick Watney Invitational, shooting 22-under par (277-279-274—830) during the two-day event.
Last time out, Fresno State saw two 'Dogs finish in the Top 5 at the Visit Stockton Invitational in Matthew Manganello and Matthew Sutherland. The two each finished with an 8-under par 205.
Manganello's career-low 205 was started with a career-low 66 in Round 1. It helped him to the best finish of his Bulldog career.
Sutherland has been in the Top 5 at all three tournaments this fall, finishing with an 11-under par at the Nick Watney Invitational (4th) a 9-under par at the Wolf Pack Classic (4th) and then a 8-under par at the Stockton Invitational (5th).
Sutherland is ranked No. 30 in the nation according to GolfStat, No. 10 in the region.
Sutherland, Joseph Lloyd, Andrew Lee and Matthew Manganello have each finished one of the Bulldogs' first two tournaments under par.
In his first tournament as a Bulldog, Utah transfer Joseph Lloyd finished two spots back of Sutherland. The sophomore was consistent, shooting in the 60s each round while posting an 8-under par 205 (69-68-68).
The year's roster is a mix of four returners (Jake Bettencourt, Andrew Lee, Matthew Manganello, Matthew Sutherland), two transfers (Joseph Lloyd, Ryan Mendez) and two true freshmen (Jake Aberle, Jaden Hunter).
Youth is something the Bulldogs have plenty of with no seniors on the roster. Lee, Manganello and Sutherland are the oldest 'Dogs but still have two seasons to play.
Bettencourt and Sutherland enter the year having competed in this past summer's U.S. Amateur. For Sutherland, it was his second straight appearance in the tournament.
