Mina Morova finished 11th in saber, Sara Jew Lim placed 17th in foil and Erin McGarry took 14th in epee.
Notre Dame, who led in the team standings after Thursday's rounds, produced two national champions and two other runners-up, but Ohio State gained a one-point margin 97-96 in the team standings today.
The NCAA Championships continue this weekend with men's rounds 1-4 tomorrow, Saturday March 27 and rounds 5-7 on Sunday.
