In a medal match event, each match is scored by the cumulative number of strokes won by rather than the number of holes won. Up 3 means that the player is up by three strokes, not three holes. The player up by the most strokes after 18 holes wins the match.
Here are the results from each pairing in the medal match:
- Oklahoma Christian's Andres Brictson def. Lee's Dalton Chuba by two strokes
- Lee's Connor Pollman def. Oklahoma Christian's Mateo Pulcini by one stroke
- Lee's Dustin DeMersseman def. Oklahoma Christian's Oskari Nikku by 10 strokes
