The Vaqueros finished with another golf in the top-five as junior Rodolphe Cicala finished tied for fourth with a three-round score of five-under 205, which is tied for the fifth lowest three-round score in program history, after a final round one-over 71. 
 
Junior Emilio Gil Leyva finished tied for 28th with a three-round score of 212 after a final round three-under par 67. Junior Esteban Gonzalez and senior Arthit Kruaprayong finished tied for 48th with three-round scores of 217 as Gonzalez posted a final round 72 and Kruaprayong carding a 71. 
 
Sophomore Gabriel Dulon Villoslada finished tied for 65th with a three-round score of 219 after his third-straight round of 72. 
 
As a team, UTRGV used a final round 277 to finish tied for fifth place with a three-round score of 840, which is the second lowest three-round team score in program history.
