Tonight, Temple (11-12, 5-5) travels to Tom Gola Arena to take on La Salle (9-16,2-9). The Owls will be looking for their fourth straight win while the Explorers are looking to put the breaks on a current 5 game losing streak.
When the two teams met on February 4th, the Owls trounced the Explorers at the Liacouras Center. The trio of Tyndale (22), Salisbury (19), and Christmas (17) buried the Explorers, 89-64. Temple has won five of the last six match ups with La Salle, the only loss coming in the second match up late last year as former La Salle standout and 2006 A-10 player of the year (totally bogus) Steve Smith scored 21 points, shoointg 5 of 7 from three point range.
Tickets are on sale at the Liacouras Box Office, as well as at Tom Gola Arena (I think).
