College Heights vs Temple

[smitty77]

I thought CH was suppose to be really good this year. Is Temple that good, or did CH play bad or what. Just asking about any thoughts on that game.

Temple slowed the game way down in the first 1/2 and had the lead at the break. CH likes a fast up-tempo style and came out and pressed for the rest of the game. CH had a 5 point lead with less than 1 min. to go and missed key FT's to seal the win. Caleb Skogen took the ball and hit a running lay-up at the buzzer to send it to the 1st OT. CH leading scorer was benched from the 1 min. mark of the 4th qtr and both OT periods for undisclosed reasons.

 

CH was down by 2 with 8 seconds to go and their PG went coast to coast to hit a runner at the buzzer to send it to the next OT.

 

In the 2nd OT CH's PG fouled out and their SG fouled out. Temple went up by 5 and hit their FT's when CH had to foul.

 

CH - Jordan led CH w/ 32 points and 14 rebs. Temple's Caleb Skogen had 16 points in the OT's to end with 41. Foul trouble really hurt CH. Great game. Temple is a good team. They lack size but both Skogen kids and the Wadley kid are decent players. Temple is 10-5 and has played a tough schedule.
