The best round of the final day belonged to Beah Cruz. She shot an even-par 72. She put three birdies on her Sunday scorecard and ended the week shooting a 227.

Toledo won the event by shooting an 877 over the three rounds. The Bears had the second-best finish of the six Big Sky schools competing in the event.
