TOLEDO, Ohio - Junior Bence Bertényi has been named the Mid-American Conference Men's Golfer of the Week, the league office announced on Friday. It marked the second time this fall and third time in Bertenyi's collegiate career that he has received the weekly conference honor.
A Budapest, Hungary native won his second tournament title of the season on Tuesday to lead Toledo to a second-place finish at the Purdue Fall Invitational. Bertényi shot a second-straight 4-under par 68 in the final round to finish with a career-low 9-under par 207 at the par-72, 7,465-yard Kampen-Cosler Golf Course.
Bertényi won the title by two strokes over Indiana's Cole Starnes and Illinois' Harrison Zipfel. He held the lead the entire back nine and didn't register a bogey until his final hole of the day. Bertényi tied for the tournament lead with 15 birdies and led all individuals in par-3 scoring at 3-under par.
Bertényi leads the Rockets with a career-low 70.3 stroke average and is ranked 27th nationally in the Scoreboard computer rankings.
Bertényi is back in action next week when the Rockets wrap up their fall season with a trip to Johnson City, Tenn. for East Tennessee State's Bank of Tennessee Intercollegiate on Monday-Wednesday, Oct. 19-21.
