Megan Woods and
Maddy McDanel adding 77 and 80, respectively.
Holly Morgan had the drop score of 81.
San Juan was the quintet's top finisher ending up seventh at 231. Morgan and Woods tied for ninth with 233 as Perez wound up tied for 13th at 235. McDanel (250) tied for 31st.
It marked the 10th straight year the Mocs have finished either first or second in the event. They were runners-up to Furman in 2009, the first year Moss Creek hosted, before winning five straight from 2010-14 on the North Course. The last four years include second-place endings. The program was re-instated in 2007-08 after being ended in the mid-1980s.
No. 8 Furman claimed the win closing with 294. The Paladins Reona Hirai claimed a four-shot win over teammate Natalie Srinivasan shooting 6-over 222. Samford (952) ended up fourth behind the Mocs and Bears followed by UNCG (964), ETSU (965), Wofford (979), The Citadel (1,039) and Western Carolina (1,064).
