Fran Dunphy Receives 2019 Gene Bartow Award

PHILADELPHIA - Fran Dunphy, who guided Temple men's basketball to 270 wins in his 13-year tenure, has been named the recipient of the 2019 Gene Bartow Award. The Gene Bartow Award is presented annually to a current or former coach for his contributions to the game. It measures a coach's win-loss record and also the impact he has made on his players, school and community.

Dunphy, who stepped down as the Owls' coach following the 2018-19 season, earlier this year received the Dean Smith Award presented by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association and the Philadelphia Sports Writers Association Good Guy Award.
