Jason Bustos Named to Second Team All-SCIAC List

LA VERNE, CA — Junior Jason Bustos of the University of La Verne men's golf team has been named Second Team All-SCIAC, as announced by the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference on Tuesday.

Bustos earned the honor following an outstanding season in which he consistently led the Leopards in key tournaments and emerged as one of the top golfers in the nation. The Chino Hills native is currently ranked 24th in NCAA Division III and has recorded four top-five finishes this season, including a runner-up performance at SCIAC No. 1 and a fourth-place finish at SCIAC No. 4.

At SCIAC No. 1 in March, Bustos made an immediate impact, finishing sixth overall and leading the Leopards with a two-day score of 145. He opened the tournament with a scorching 68-La Verne's lowest round of the event-fueled by six birdies, including four on the front nine. His performance helped propel the team to a second-place finish at the event.

Bustos capped off his season with a strong showing at the SCIAC Championships, where he shot under par all three days (70-70-71) to finish at 5-under overall and claim 11th place. He led the Leopards and tied for third among all competitors with 16 birdies across the tournament, showcasing his consistency and scoring ability on the biggest stage.

This marks the first All-SCIAC honor of Bustos' career and highlights his emergence as a key leader for La Verne. As he heads into his senior season, Bustos will look to build on his impressive junior campaign and continue to elevate the Leopards on both the regional and national stage.
