The Longhorns (304-302-293=899, +35) entered Tuesday's final round in 12th place but battled into the top-five as juniors Desiree Dubreuil and Madison Pressel recorded Top 25 individual finishes.
Dubreuil (75-76-74) and Pressel (79-72-74) finished Tuesday's round with 2-over 74s at the Glen View Club to tie for 25th place at 9-over 225.
