PRINCETON, N.J. – The University of Pennsylvania men's golf team held its place on the final day of the Princeton Invitational Sunday, finishing sixth in a field of 12 teams.
 
The two-day, 54-hole event was played on the par-71 course at Springdale Golf Club off Princeton's campus.

Penn shot 5-over-par 289 as a team in Sunday's final round, and while that made up some ground on fifth-place Yale it was not enough to overcome the Bulldogs, whose three-round 871 was one shot better than the Quakers' 872. Host Princeton won the team title, shooting a team 275 on Sunday which was better than any other team in the field by a full 11 strokes. That left the Tigers at 843 overall, 12 strokes ahead of second-place Howard (855) and 14 ahead of third-place Seton Hall (857). Among the other Ivy teams in the field, Columbia (868) was fourth, Yale and Penn were fifth and sixth, Harvard (876) was seventh, Dartmouth (900) was 11th and Cornell (937) was 12th.
 
Freshman Max Fonseca posted Penn's low round on Sunday, an even-par 71 that left him at 2-over-par 215 for the weekend and had him 12th in a field of 73 golfers who finished the event. The other freshman in the lineup, Hayden Adams, shot 72 on Sunday and finished 19th at 5-over-par 218, while George Roessler ended the weekend at 8-over-par 221 and tied for 26th. Junior Ben Scott (Sunday 74) and senior Jimin Jung (72) both scored for the Quakers on Sunday and ended the weekend tied for 39th and tied for 44th, respectively.
 
Princeton's Riccardo Fantinelli, Howard's Gregory Odom Jr. and Howard's Everett Whiten Jr. all tied for top spot on the leaderboard, the trio finishing 54 holes at 6-under-par 207.
