Temple Owls Dominate Quakers at Liacouras Center in Women's Basketball Showdown

In a display of home-court advantage, the Temple Owls secured a victory over the Quakers with a final score of 61-47. The Owls now stand with an improved record, while the Quakers face another setback in their season.

The game at Liacouras Center saw the Temple Owls outperforming their opponents across various facets of play. The home team's offense was particularly effective, converting 42 percent of their two-point attempts and scoring 38 points in the paint. Their defensive efforts were equally impressive, with 15 steals contributing to a total of 31 points off turnovers. The Owl's aggressive play did lead to 20 turnovers on their part but was mitigated by their higher assist-to-turnover ratio compared to that of the Quakers.

The Temple team also excelled in rebounding, grabbing a total of 46 rebounds – including an impactful presence on offensive boards with 13 rebounds leading to second-chance opportunities that resulted in 11 additional points for the team. Their free throw performance was respectable as well, making ten out of sixteen attempts.

On defense, they managed four blocks and held Penn to shooting just over one-quarter from beyond the arc and under one-third for two-pointers. This stifling defense limited Penn’s fast break opportunities and contained them to only nine fast break points throughout the game.

The visiting Quakers struggled against this robust defense but showed resilience at times during each quarter. They managed six three-pointers and maintained an impressive free throw accuracy rate at nearly eighty percent which contributed significantly to their overall score tally.

As fans look ahead, they can anticipate another opportunity for victory when Temple hosts Delaware Fightin Blue Hens at Liacouras Center on December fifteen at seven o'clock PM Eastern Time. Fans unable to attend can catch all live action as it unfolds from Philadelphia’s renowned venue.
