TEMPLE TUFF

Wearing a single-digit jersey is considered to be one of the highest honors an Owl can earn. These are awarded to the student-athletes deemed by their teammates to be the toughest members of the team. Three players carried over the honor from 2018: Sean Bradley, Matt Hennessy, and Chapelle Russell. Franklin, Mack and Wright earned theirs at the beginning of camp this season. Fair earned his honorary single-digit about halfway through camp. Archibong, OL Graham-Mobley, and Jones all received their single-digits on the final day of camp. The NCAA prohibits offensive linemen from wearing numbers outside of Jovahn 50-79 in a game so Hennessy will still wear #58 and Fair #70 in games. #9 was given to Roche following non-conference play.
