Rounding out the Saints' five-man competition team was senior Ashley Nguyen, along with sophomore Abigail Chai-Onn and freshman Lena Kaufman. Chai-Onn moved up 10 spots in day two with a +8, 80 to finish in a tie with Long Island's Aida Gonzalez for 33rd, while Kaufman went for +11, 83 to conclude play in a three-way split for 35th.
