LAS VEGAS - UNLV's Brett Kanda won the 108th SCGA (Southern California Golf Association) Amateur Championship on Sunday, July 1 at the Victoria Golf Club in Riverside, Calif. Kanda, a redshirt sophomore, shot an even-par 71 to win the tournament by three shots over UC Irvine's Brian Edick.

Kanda, who helped the Rebel golf team to a 10th place standing in the final Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index Ratings for 2006-07, shot rounds of 68-66-70-71 to claim the title. Kanda faced some pressure as Edick shot a 4-under-par round of 67 in the final round.

Following the tournament, it was announced that Kanda will be joined by the recently crowned California Amateur champion Josh Anderson and the reigning SCGA Mid-Amateur champion Tim Hogarth as SCGA representatives for the 41st Pacific Coast Amateur Championship to be held at the San Diego Country Club on Aug. 7-10.
