Cal State Monterey Bay won the 2011 NCAA Division II National Championship in men's golf, its first in any sport at the university.
Purchase
To commemorate and chronicle this historic event, 15 CSUMB employees have come together to donate their time and talent to write, record and produce a song. Titled "Birdie In The Hole," it's upbeat, bluesy and the story of that last hole where all five golfers finished their final round in dramatic fashion (watch the highlights).

Previous Fundraising
In order to pay for that first batch of CDs, we needed help to raise the base costs for packaging and duplicating the commemorative CD. We offered to put their name in the liner notes with every pre-order! Here was our original pitch:
Here's Dylan Jackson's scorecard from that day, dramatically recreated as a commemorative bookmark by Kevin Garcia.
