Results

SARASOTA, Fla. - The Temple University men's golf team rounded out the first day of action at the American Athletic Conference Championships on Monday. The Owls, playing the Ritz-Carlton Members Golf Course, were led by junior Aidan Emmerich and senior Jake Naese, who shot 73 and 74, respectively.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Emmerich recorded a team-high three birdies on the day, as the Owls totaled just eight in total by their five competitors.
Both Emmerich and Naese closed out their front nine, and the back nine of the course, at even-par 36.
On the flip side, senior Ethan Whitney totaled an even-par 36 on the front nine of the course - the lone Temple player to shoot par or better over those nine holes.
As a team, the Owls shot 299 and are in 11th place overall.
South Florida, ranked 33rd in the country heading into the event, leads after the first round of the tournament by four strokes over Memphis.
A trio of players are five-under par to sit atop the individual leaderboard.
