Temple advances to championship game
March 13, 2010
Temple took the first of the semifinal matchups at the A-10 Tournament. The Owls opened up a 13-2 lead to start the game and never looked back en route to a 57-44 win.
Not even a water leak, which delayed the game for about 10 minutes in the first, could slow down Temple or wake Rhode Island up. The Rams mustered up just 17 points in the first half and never really made the game close after they fell behind.
Rhode Island, which game into the game as Joe Lunardi's final team in the NCAA Tournament, could have used a win to solidify a spot in the tournament. Instead, they find themselves squarely on the bubble.
Temple moved on to the championship game and will be playing for its third straight conference tournament title.
