PHILADELPHIA – Temple senior guard Quinton Rose was named to the 2020 American Athletic Conference Second Team All-Conference team. It is the third straight season that Rose has been honored by the AAC, earning second team honors in 2019 and honorable mention as a sophomore in 2018. The all-conference teams are voted on by the league coaches.
A team co-captain, Rose leads Temple in scoring (16.4 ppg/2nd AAC), assists (3.5 apg/9th AAC) and steals (2.0 spg/3rd) and is the only player in the conference to rank among the Top 10 in all three statistical categories.

The Rochester, N.Y. native ranks sixth on Temple's all-time scoring list and seventh on the all-time steals list with 231. Rose also is just the fourth Temple player to have over 1500 points, 500 rebounds, 300 assists and 200 steals in his Temple career. He has 1860 points, 552 rebounds, 325 assists and 231 steals, joining Mark Macon (2609 pts, 700 rebs, 352 asts, 281 stls), Mardy Collins (1919 pts, 569 rebs, 398 asts, 290 stls) and Mark Tyndale (1729 pts, 733 rebs, 377 asts, 201 stls) in this elite all-around group.
