Favretto dominated on the links for the Urban Knights this season. The sophomore, who was also selected to the PacWest First-Team, averaged 77.21 per the course. He earned his highest finish of the season during the PacWest Championships sponsored by Hawaiian Airlines; he tied for seventh out of the 42 golfer field and shot 76-72-76 to finish with a 224 total.

Favretto tied his season lowest individual finish, 224, three times. He first achieved the feat at the NDNU Argonaut Invitational, then the following week at the Grand Canyon Thunderbird Invitational, and finally again during the PacWest Conference Championships. It was during the Thunderbird Invitational, however, where he shot his lowest single round score of 69, three strokes under par.

Carding a final round 76 in the PacWest Championship earned Favretto a tied for seventh place finish and  his second top-10 finish of the season. “It just goes to show that when you work hard it pays off. I am so proud of his accomplishments!" Larkey exclaimed.
