Louisville closed the regional by shooting a round of 11-over-par on Wednesday to finish with scores of 287-303-299-889. The Cards attempted to make a late run with 11 birdies over their final round, but a couple of double bogeys in the final holes thwarted the comeback attempt. Louisville got within six shots of advancing on Wednesday.
Mississippi State, BYU, Florida State, Baylor and Pepperdine were the five teams to advance to next week's NCAA Championship. The Tigers won the regional with a score of 1-under-par and were the only school to finish under-par for the week.

Moss was 3-over for the regional after his rounds of 70-73-76=219. He carded a 4-over-par 76 on Wednesday that kept him from finishing in the top 10. He struggled on the front nine at 5-over-par but was 1-under on the back with consecutive birdies on No. 10 and No. 11.
Max Kennedy had his string of seven consecutive top-10 finishes come to an end by ending the regional in a tie for 45th after shooting 72-79-75= 226. C.M.
