Jessie Lin of Canyons was second, two shots behind Sherpa, and four-time WSC medalist Haruka Koda of Canyons was third at 75.

The Cougars captured their sixth straight WSC tourney with a 316. The Vaqueros were 14 strokes back in second (330) and the host Citrus took third at 418.

Honey Lawrie shot 88 for 10th place and Paris White shot 89 to take 11th. The Vaqueros had five players in the top 11.
