Kostina's 18th place finish gives her five consecutive tournaments with a Top 25 finish to start her young WSU career. As impressive as Kostina's effort was, teammates Jay-Lee Longbottom and Kim Welch vaulted their way up the leader board, finishing tied for 24th, with Longbottom moving up 27 spots to start her day, and Welch moving up 34 positions.

Stephanie Parsley ended the tournament tied at 71st, followed by Donna Bell and Ashleigh Gilhuly tied at 79th to round out the Cougar contingent. As a team, the Cougars finished tied at 10th with UC-Irvine at 70-over, and just four shots back of seventh place in the field of 22 teams. UNLV finished the day at 42-over and with the tournament crown.
