Men's Golf Moves Up a Spot After Saturday Play at Ivy Championships

GREENWICH, Conn. – The University of Pennsylvania men's golf team finished the second day sixth in what remains a relatively tight Ivy League Championships field. The three-day, 54-hole event will conclude with Sunday's final round on the par-72 course at The Stanwich Club.

Penn shot 298 as a team on Saturday, shaving 14 strokes off their score from Friday. That was tied for the third-best score among the seven teams in the tournament and moved the Quakers ahead of Cornell into sixth place with a two-day score of 610. Princeton leads the way after shooting a staggering 7-under-par 281 on Saturday. That has the Tigers at 590 through two rounds, eight shots ahead of Dartmouth. But only 20 strokes separate first and sixth place, so there is room for plenty of drama on Sunday.
 
George Roessler carded a 74 on Saturday and ended the day at 6-over-par 150 which has him tied for eighth in the field of 35 golfers. Senior Mark Haghani had Penn's low score on Saturday, a 1-over-par 73, and ended the day at 152. He was tied for 12th with teammate John Richardson, who scored a 75 on Saturday.
 
Jimin Jung did not score for Penn on Saturday, but his 77 left him at 157 for the weekend. That's ahead of teammate Ben Scott, whose 76 scored for the Quakers in the second round but left him at 160 for the weekend so far.
 
Princeton players own the top two spots on the individual leaderboard. Riccardo Fantinelli shot a 2-under-par 70 on Saturday and is at 2-under-par 142 for the weekend. That has him one shot ahead of teammate Jackson Fretty, who set a Stanwich Club record by shooting 6-under-par 66 to leave him at 1-under-par 143 through two days.
