Steve Werst finished in fourth place with an 80, and Brody Blessing posted a fifth place finish with a score of 82 (+10).

Against the Falcons of Messiah College, it turned out to be a much closer finish. The red and white managed to walk away from the country club with a three stroke victory over Messiah (317 to 320). Leading the way for the Lions was the duo of Thorn and Osorio. Thorn posted another 75, while Osorio recorded his second 76 of the afternoon.

Blessing ended the match with an 82 (+10), and Drew Reich closed out the match with an 84 (+12).
