Charlotte-Temple stats

ATLANTIC CITY -- It wasn't pretty, but that doesn't matter now...

Charlotte shot 16-for-59 from the field (27.1%), including 6-for-32 from three-point range (18.8%) and 10-for-27 from two-point range (37.0%), and 7-for-12 from the free throw line (58.3%). Eight offensive rebounds, 20 defensive rebounds, nine assists, ten turnovers, no blocks, eight steals and 20 fouls committed.

That adds up to 66 possessions and 0.679 points per possession.

Leemire Goldwire led the 49ers in his final collegiate game with 18 points on 5-for-18 shooting, including 4-for-14 from three-point range.

Temple shot 19-for-47 from the field (40.4%), including 6-for-25 from three-point range (24.0%) and 13-for-22 from two-point range (59.1%), and 16-for-23 from two-point range (69.6%). A whopping 12 offensive and 36 defensive rebounds, 12 assists, 19 turnovers, five blocks, five steals and 17 fouls committed.

That adds up to 65 possessions and 0.924 points per possession.

Line of the game is, once again, no contest. Mark Tyndale was dominant tonight, and if he does it again tomorrow he might just take the Big 5 Player of the Year award to the NCAA Tournament.

I fell in love with the Big 5 at first sight upon moving to Philadelphia in 2002. At various points in my journalistic career, I've covered all six of the region's Division I teams. During that time, I've eaten many soft pretzels from the Palestra's concession stands, which is how this blog got its name.

In addition to the blog, I host and produce the Inquirer's College HoopsCast. It's a weekly podcast that features all the latest news and analysis from around local and national college basketball. Regular guests include Inquirer writers Mike Jensen, Joe Juliano and Mel Greenberg.

I also occasionally contribute to the Inquirer's women's basketball weblog, Women's Hoops Guru. If you've come here from there, this blog deals mostly with the men's side of things, though I do write about women's basketball and other sports when they fit in.

When not focusing on college hoops, I host and produce the Inquirer's PhilliesCast with Phillies beat writer Todd Zolecki, and can occasionally be found behind the camera shooting videos of the Eagles, other professional sports teams and the tiger cubs at the zoo.

One of the great things about City Series basketball, and college basketball as a whole, is its sense of community. So I want to hear from you. Post a comment or send me an email by clicking on my name above. But don't be profane, and don't post hate speech. I'm sure you'd like to take a shot at that commenter on the opposite side of a rivalry from you, or say something nasty about a team you don't like. But this blog isn't the place for it. Thanks.
