FALLBROOK, Calif. (July 16, 2007)-- The amateurgolf.com San Diego County Amateur is still anyone's tournament, with eight players at par or better.

Duke sophomore Brian Lee and UC-Berkley junior Erick Thorson lead the pack after shooting 2-under-par 70 at The Country Club of California.

"The back nine I shot great," said Kim. "I hit every birdie I had an opportunity to make, and I had good luck on a couple of holes."

For Thorson, it was the putter that made the difference.

"I made three twenty-footers for birdie," he said. "I think tomorrow I'll change my club selection on a few holes. This is the first time I've played this course, so tomorrow I can be a little more aggressive."

Also under par was Poway's Adam Porzak and a pair of Philippines national players, Anthony Fernando and Michael Eric Bibat.
