Cal State San Marcos’ two recent national champions will throw out the first pitch at the Padresʻ game on June 23 against the Washington Nationals.
Rasha Badrani, who won the women’s 400-meter race at the NCAA Division II national indoor track and field championships in March, and Madison Murr, who won the individual component of the NCAA Division II national women’s golf championship tournament earlier this month, are both being honored at the game.
Discounted tickets are on sale for CSUSM students, faculty and staff. The game is at 6:40 p.m. at Petco Park. The first 40,000 fans in attendance will receive an exclusive Fernando Tatis Jr. bobblehead.
Badrani won her title in a time of 52.92 seconds, a 0.28-second edge against her closest competitor, Peace Nwaelehia of West Texas A&M.
Murr posted scores of 69, 64 and 69 for a three-round total of 14-under 202, beating Gracie Grant of Dallas Baptist University by three strokes.
