3.10.20 | Men's Golf
AIKEN, S.C. – Junior captain Dawson Anders had a tremendous final round for Temple, shooting a three-under 67 to tie for fifth at the Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate Tuesday. The Owls placed 10th in the 15-team tournament which was held at the Palmetto Golf Club's par-70, 6,617-yard course.
Recapping the Day
> Anders was two over par after five holes before catching fire. He would birdie six of the final 13 holes, including four of five at one stretch. Overall he shot a two-under 208 for his best three-round tournament of his career. The 67 round ties his season best and is two strokes off his career mark, a 65 set at the 2018 Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate.
> Freshman Graham Chase was next for the Owls, shooting a three-over 73 for his final round. For the tournament, he tied for 36th with a 12-over 222.
> Sophomore Conor McGrath carded a second straight round of 74, placing third overall for Temple and tied for 50th among the 75 golfers in the field.
> Sophomore Anthony Barr and senior Liam McGrath rounded out the Temple five in 64th and 69th places, respectively.
The Field
> Clemson had the top three golfers on the day and won the team title by 16 strokes over runner-up Virginia.
> Clemson's Jacob Bridgeman (198, -12) shot a five-under 65, his third under-par round of the tournament, to defeat teammate Turk Pettit (202, -8) by four strokes.
Quotable
"Dawson played great today. I am really proud of him. Graham played real well from tee to green, but struggled putting. We will see him starting to kick it into gear soon.
We need more consistent efforts from all of our players and then we will be trending in the right direction."– Temple coach Brian Quinn
