Both teams played badly. 45 turnovers between the two. East Lit shot 33%, Temple 31.6%.

Temple will have to play MUCH better to advance to the final.

You're right, but the question would be -- is that normal for East Lit? I know it's not the norm for Temple.

And yes, Temple does have to play better than they did on Wednesday night to advance to the final.

If last night was "normal" we wouldn't have been there in the first place. Our nervousness got the best of us. Good luck to you.

You are right...This was a very boring,sloppy,unimpressive performance......They will have to really step it up to beat Humboldt....

Anyone who has consistently watched Temple play this year would tell you that Temple did not have one of their better games against EL yesterday. As you know, Temple only shot 31% from the field (in the 1st Half they were 8-26 and in the 2nd Half they were 7-22). From the 3-Pt. line they were 3-16 for the game (1st Half: 3-11, 2nd Half: 0-5). It is obvious that will not cut it when the Crusaders go up against the Vikings of Humboldt on Friday.

 

The key to Temple's win over EL was on the defensive side of the ball.

They caused East Lit. to turn the ball over 27 times.

Temple out-rebounded the Eagles 35-32 for the game.

 

Here is how the starters for Temple finished in the win over East Literature:

 

Seth Skogen was 6-19 from the field and 2-9 from the 3-pt line (for 18 points).

Jeremy Sexton 6-13 from the field and 1-3 from beyond the arc, plus 2 points from the charity stripe (for 17 points).

Dee Newson had 6 points.

Josh Smith had 4 points and 11 rebounds.

Brandon Andrews and Erik Larson each had 1 point for the Crusaders.

 

Even though it was not a pretty performance from the Crusaders, Temple did what they had to do to get the win in this first round game.

 

No matter what anyone says, I have complete confidence in my boys from Temple to play to their full potential in the next two games and bring home another Gold Ball to Chattanooga.

I really CAN NOT believe Temple shot the ball that badly- I honestly don't think they have shot the ball that low of a percentage- ALL YEAR.... what a great game to shoot terrible- still get a W and advance... congrats...i'll be there friday...
