Lake shot rounds of 65-68-69 to go wire-to-wire to win. Johannes Hounsgaard of Idaho finished in solo second place at 10-under with rounds of 72-63-68.

Through the front nine of the final round, Lake held a five-shot lead, but a 1-over back nine gave Hounsgaard a chance to make a comeback. Hounsgaard shot 3-under on his back nine but came up short in his comeback attempt, and Lake won by one shot.
