Healey shot rounds of 78, 73, and 74 at the Florida State Matchup in Tallahassee, Florida, which wrapped play on Sunday.
The Mocs junior led the way for her team, with an individual performance that landed her tied for 19th in the 73-player field.
The Johannesburg, South Africa, native’s outing was highlighted by two wins over top 75 golfers, shooting six shots better than No. 72 Moa Svedenskiold of Houston and nine clear of No. 61 Ryann Honea of Abilene Christian.
