Wyoming shot a 289, the sixth-best team round in program history, to finish 6-over for the tournament with a 54-hole total of 870 at the University of Denver Golf Club. 
 
UNLV won the event at 6-under, one shot clear of Xavier (-5) and five shots ahead of Tulane (-1). The Cowgirls finished one shot ahead of Notre Dame (+7), passing the Irish during Sunday's final round, and host Denver (+7).

"This was a fantastic effort and finish for us. I am so proud how they all fought for each other this week," Cowgirl head coach Josey Stender said. "We played mentally tough and also had disciplined course management. I think it showed in the fact that we led such a strong field in most pars made.

"It has been very rewarding watching the growth and progress over the past few tournaments."
