VENTURA, Calif. – Jessup was back in action on Monday, taking a trip down south to Ventura to start the 2023 Westmont Invitational. Battling the weather and rough conditions of Olivas Links, the Warriors struggled to post low numbers on day one of the action.

Tying for the best score on the team for the Jessup women were Jessica Burdick and Alyvia Mackey, as the two enter day two in a tie for 25th. Both finished the day with a round of 82 (+10), with one birdie a piece registering on their scorecards.
 
The women's field also includes Corina Shaw (T32), Macy Anderson (T35), and Irene Logan (44).
 
Over in the men's tournament, Arturo Zavala and Rex Rollins posted the best scorecards of the day, as each posted six over (78). The duo made one birdie each, with Zavala shooting one under on the front side. They sit tied for 23rd.
