The Saints finished with a two round total of 712 strokes, tied with Mt. Holyoke College for fifth place in a 10-team field. Amherst won the tournament with a 668 total with Middlebury second, Vassar third and SUNY Cortland fourth.

Alair Muzzatti tied for 13th with rounds of 87 and 86 for a 173 total while Lindsay Cone, playing her first rounds of the season after completing an outstanding ski season with All America performances in the national championships shot rounds of 91 and 92 and was 27th. Melissa Snizek shot 95 and 101 for a 196 total and was tied for 35th while Cait Cunningham bounced back from an opening round of 105 with a 97 on Sunday to finish as the Saints' fourth scorer in round two and had a 202 total.
