Freshman Rachel Larson (83-78-84--245) tied for 61st and junior Ashley Burross (86-86-78--250) scored a three-round best 78 in the final round to tie for 68th place.

The University of Alabama (298-304-298--900) made up a 12 stroke deficit Tuesday to win the tournament. The tournament host finished six strokes ahead of second place Augusta State and Birmingham-Southern.

Augusta State's Garrett Phillips finished at -3 to claim first place, five strokes ahead of UNC-Wilmington's Michelle Jarman. Lene Krog of East Carolina and Jill Stupiansky of Birmingham-Southern finished in a tie for third at +3.
