Freshman Brandon Dooley once again paced the Owl pack with an 82, good for a tie of 12th lowest round of the day. Sophomore Tyler Hoefferle finished two strokes back of him with an 84, while freshman Kurtis Carasik made his season debut with an 86.

After that it was sophomore's Benjamin Bencomo and Tyler Bliss who posted rounds of 87 and 89 respectively. As a team, the Owls shot a combined 428, 16 strokes back of third place Santa Barbara City College and 10 strokes in front of fifth place Allan Hancock College.
