On the one loss side, Eleanor Collado scored a 7-5 win over Amy Chen and then a 7-2 win over sister Emilyn. A 7-4 win over Kozomara earned Collado another shot at Zingale in the true double elimination finals.

The Men's division featured another player shooting for four titles. Lars Vardeman from Southern Illinois University came in to the event as the three time champion but a fourth title would prove to be out of his reach.
Vardeman dropped a second round match to Kyle Boers from the University of Wisconsin. Vardeman defeated Brian Williams on the one loss side, but then had his tournament brought to an early end by David Allen from the University of Maryland.
Meanwhile, the winners side saw Andrew McKinn from California State University, LA take the hot-seat with a 7-5 win over Brian Deska from the University of Maryland.
On the one loss side, Deska lost to Ryan Balks from Michigan State 7-5.
