Freshman Malene Frost shot a season-best 95, junior Regan Zimmerman shot 100 and freshman Kayla Grossi came in at 105 at Kutztown to give the Warriors a team score of 388, 14 shots better than LeMoyne. Kutztown's A team won with a 326 and Mindy Glatfelter was the medalist with a round of 75.

At West Chester, Zimmerman led the Warriors with a two-day score of 206 (103-103) to place 17th in a field of 28. Frost was two shots back at 208, followed by Jones (212) and Grossi (217). ESU's score of 843 was one shot behind LeMoyne for third.
