Schmitt replicated his season-low second-round 73 in the third by virtue of nine pars and four birdies. Three of those birdies came on the front nine at the 10th, 13th and 16th greens. He added a fourth birdie at the third green to close the tournament with a 10-over-par 223.
 
Dhaubhadel carded a third-round 75, posting four birdies and seven pars en route to a 10-over-par 223. Similar to the scorecard of Schmitt, Dhaubhadel had three of his four birdies on the front nine, which came in succession at the 12th, 13th and 14th holes. His remaining birdie came on the fourth green.
 
Boise State's Hugo Townsend maintained his spot atop the individual leaderboard through the third round, capping off the tournament with a 6-under-par 207. He was two strokes better than Washington's Noah Woolsey, who finished at 4-under-par 209, and three shots better than both Oregon's Tom Gueant and Oregon State's Spencer Tibbits, who posted 3-under-par scores of 210.
 
ULM seniors Guillaume Fanonnel and Andoni Etchenique finished tied for 32nd with 11-over-par scores of 224. Fanonnel finished off the tournament with a third-round 77, leading the Warhawks with a team-best five birdies on the final day. After one birdie on the front nine, which came at the 10th hole, Fanonnel notched birdies at the first, fourth, 17th and 18th holes.
