Eversman shot rounds of 79,80, and 78 which totaled her score to 237. Her score was 19 strokes behind meet co-medalists Audrey Judd (76-72-70=218) of Nebraska and Janet Yeo (73-71-74=218) of UC Irvine.

Despite the efforts of the co-medalists, Kansas won the eight-team event with a combined score of 903. Creighton's team score was 967, just beating out Nebraska-Omaha for seventh place by one stroke.

Besides Eversman's effort (79-80-78=237), Creighton's team was composed mostly of juniors; Rachel Grenko tied for 33^rd (83-80-78=241), Kelsey Johnson finished 49^th (85-82-82=249), and Sydney Gillespie finished 53^rd (82-86-86=254).

Competing as an individual and not factoring into CU's score was junior Caroline Lake. The Madison, Wis., native tied for 17^th in the tournament after shooting rounds of 80,76, and 79 to total 235 strokes for the meet.
