The team finished the event in seventh-place with a final round 301 after shooting back-to-back 298s on the first two days of competition. 

Senior Kesley Murphy (Plymouth, Mich.-Plymouth) had another strong outing, shooting a final-round 73 to finish with a three-round total of 217, which put her in a tie for ninth-place. The top-10 finish marks the eighth of her career, and her third of the season. Behind Murphy, junior Thelma Beck (Baden, France-Lycee Sainte Anne) had a solid third day, matching her first round score with a 75 to finish 24th overall with a total score of 223. 

Freshman Maria Connelly (Waterville, Ohio-Anthony Wayne) shot a 79 in the third round, putting her final score at 228 and into a tie for 36th-place. Sophomore Kritsuda Apiwatthanadol (Bangkok, Thailand-Somtawin Witead Suska Huaymongkhon School) finished the event in a tie for 63rd after shooting an 81 on the final day of competition, putting her three-day total at 236. Finally, sophomore Penelope Guilleux (Saint Maur Des Fosse, France-Arsonval) posted a big improvement over her first two days, notching a final round 74 to finish in a tie for 67th at 237 overall.
