PRINCETON, NJ - Freshman Brandon Matthews and sophomore Matt Teesdale shared the individual medalist honors, carding four-under par scores of 209 to lead Temple men's golf to a second place finish at the 14-team Princeton Invitational Sunday. The Owls (870) finished just two shots behind Yale (868), which won the event held at the Springdale Golf Club.
The Owl golfers shot identical scores (69-71-69) on all three rounds with the combined total of 209 tying Andrew Mason (209 at the 2010 McLaughlin) for the third lowest 54-hole score in Temple history. It was Teesdale's first individual title as an Owl while Matthews notched the second of his rookie season.
"Brandon and Matt are tremendous players, they are the complete package," said Temple head coach Brian Quinn. "They hit it real solid and have great heads on their shoulders. Most importantly they are two super kids and am very happy they shared the title today."
Junior Matthew Crescenzo (72-73-78, 223) tied for 19th place while senior Devin Bibeau (76-76-77, 229) finished in a tie for 40th place. Sophomore Paul Carbone (78-76-79, 233) rounded out the Owls and was tied for 54th place.
