In the second match of the day against Arizona, Julia Lopez Ramirez was able to secure a match win. Early in the contest, Lopez Ramirez fell behind two holes. However, when she made the turn onto the front nine, Julia was able to turn the tides stretched her lead to four holes.

Avery Weed also saw success in her second match of the day. Weed never fell behind in her second match of the day. With two holes remaining, the match was ultimately called due to darkness. Since she held a one-hole lead at the time, this would give Weed her first collegiate match victory.
