The Cal State San Marcos men's golf team will compete in the CCAA Championships from April 21-23 at Sandpiper Golf Club in Santa Barbara, California. The Cougars ended their regular season with a ninth-place finish at the Hanny Invitational, where Nick Mouser was the top golfer with a 3-under 213. Currently ranked seventh in the West Region, CSUSM seeks to improve upon its previous performances, including a third-place finish last year and its first-ever conference title in 2023.

By the Numbers
  • CSUSM finished the regular season ninth at the Hanny Invitational.
  • Nick Mouser scored 3-under 213, tying for 11th place.
  • The Cougars aim for their ninth appearance in the CCAA Championships.
Yes, But

Despite the strong return of nine players from last season, there’s pressure to perform against formidable CCAA competitors, including the defending champion Cal State Monterey Bay.

State of Play
  • CSUSM holds a no. 7 ranking in the West Region with five teams above them.
  • The Cougars concluded the regular season with seven top-five finishes in 11 tournaments.
What's Next

Should the Cougars excel at the CCAA Championships, they could secure a favorable position for the upcoming NCAA West/South Central Regional in May and possibly advance to the national stage.

Bottom Line

CSUSM’s performance at the CCAA Championships is crucial for establishing their competitiveness in the region and enhancing team morale as they build on the successes of the past seasons.
