April 17, 2010

The Dons captured runner-up honors for the eighth consecutive season to Pepperdine which won its eighth straight WCC Championship.

San Francisco enters the WCC's ranked No. 41 in the most current edition of the Golfweek/Sagarin rankings. The Dons posted a runner-up showing in the 2010 Anteater Classic, hosted by UC Irvine in their last outing and tied for third at the Dr. Donnis Thompson Invitational in Hawaii.
