With 22 pars on the day she sat in 23rd overall.

Naik was followed by Maddaloni tied for 51st place at 19 over and RaeChelle in 58 at 23 over. Senior Leslie Atkins who competed as an individual stood tied for 73 after shooting a 30 over par 172.

The last day saw Maddaloni shoot a team-low 75. She started slowly shooting five over on the first 16 before birdieing the par-4 13 and par-5 14. She jumped nine spots to tie Naik for 42nd overall.

Freshman Olivia Landberg followed finishing 65th with junior Michaela Osborne right behind in 66th. Junior Leslie Atkins who competed as an individual finished in 69th and junior RaeChelle Leiken in 70th.
