ITHACA, N.Y. – Sophomore Sam Soeth turned in his first Top 10 finish of his career, placing fourth overall at the Cornell Invitational Sunday. The Newtown Square, Pa. native carded a 73 on the final day to end the three-round, two-day event with a two-over 215.
As a team, Temple tied for eighth at the 14-team tournament held at the par-71, 6,904-yard Robert Trent Jones Golf Course.
"I am really happy for Sam as he worked hard in the off-season and it shows," said Temple coach Brian Quinn. "He really had his game working well this weekend. What a great way for him to open the season."
Redshirt sophomore John Barone also shot a 73 in his final round, moving up six spots to tie for 36th overall with a 15-over 228.
Sophomore Gary McCabe was two strokes back of Barone and tied for 40th with a 17-over 230. He was followed by redshirt freshman Erik Reisner (+20/233) and junior Mark Farley (+23/236), who tied for 54th and 62nd, respectively.
Sophomore Trey Wren rounded out the Owls squad with a 24-over 237 to tie for 64th.
Colgate's Ryan Skae shot a blistering six-under 207 to easily win the event with Cornell's Luke Graboyes (213/Even) the only other golfer to each even par among the 81 golfers.
Host Cornell won the team title with an 879 (+27). Colgate was four strokes back (883) in second place.
