Elizabethtown College Athletics

Dave Dentler continued his affiliation with the Elizabethtown College golf team in 2011-12, helping second-year coach Bob Pyrz as a volunteer assistant.

Dentler coached the program on an interim basis during the 2009-10 season. The Blue Jays won the Fall Blue Jay Classic at Hershey Country Club's East Course and finished in the top-five eight times total.

Elizabethtown hosted the 2010 Commonwealth Conference Championships, where Dentler led the team to a third place finish just behind Messiah and Albright. Under Dentler, then-junior Dan Senkler '11 finished third at the conference championships to earn All-Commonwealth Conference First Team status.

All five of E-town's golfers at the conference championships finished in the top-22 of the overall standings. The Jays' best finish outside of their win was a runner-up finish at the York (Pa.) College Invitational on Mar. 29.

Dentler graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor of science degree in business administration in 1983. He earned his master of education in adult and continuing education from Temple.
