Matilda Castren and Kelly Tan were second after a 62.
Former Arkansas players Stacy Lewis and Maria Fassi shot a 59 to finish third at 20 under.
Cheyenne Knight and Elizabeth Szokol had a 61 to match Tiffany Chan and Haeji Kang at 19 under. Chan and Kang shot a 62.
Annika Sorenstam and Madelene Sagstrom, tied for the first-round lead, closed with a 66 to tie for 28th at 11 under.
The 51-year-old Sorenstam made her second LPGA Tour start of the year and only her third since retiring after the 2008 season. The Hall of Famer missed the cut last month in the U.S. Women's Open.
