In the First Flight, Emily Morrison, joined her teammates with the party of leaders from Southeast, carding an 87 for first place in the flight. Teammate Jessica Mix shot a 98, good for fourth place in the First Flight of girls.

For the boys, Jax Turner of Kent shot his way to a 79 on the tough fairways of Good Park to earn eighth place in the Championship Flight with one day remaining.
