Yu, a freshman, earned a fourth-place finish after carding an even-par 71 final round to finish 3-over 216 for the tournament at the Palos Verdes Golf Club.

The freshman newcomers continued to lead the Cowgirls as Camarena and Bailey both shot 1-over 72 for the day.

Camarena was one of only four golfers to hit an eagle during the tournament, and she had eight birdies. She finished 10-over 223 and tied for 26th. Bailey was one stroke behind her, finishing 11-over 224 and tied for 31st. She had 7 birdies.

Senior Chih-Min Chen finished 15-over 228, while sophomore Emma Whitaker finished the tournament 20-over 223.
