The Lady Vols, seeded No. 6, faced off against No. 4 seed Auburn in a nail-biting final. Kyra Van Kan clinched the victory with a championship-winning putt after a tense match that ended 2-2, with her team winning two matches decisively. Notably, Sophie Christopher and Sofie Engesaeth also played pivotal roles, with Engesaeth winning all three of her matches throughout the tournament.
