Inge Leads Owls to 2nd Straight

Semaj Inge picked the perfect day to show his true talents- his 19 points made him the high scorer in Temple's 80-53 victory over Charlotte.

Not only was this game entertaining for Owls fans, but the halftime presentation for HOF inductees John Chaney and Dr. Ray Moyer made it even sweeter.

Here are some statistics and notes from the Owls' blowout victory:

High Scorers

(TEM) Semaj Inge, 19
(CHA) Phil Jones, 14

High Rebounders

(TEM) Lavoy Allen, 10
(CHA) Lamont Mack, 9

High Assists

(TEM) Juan Fernandez, 4
(CHA) DiJuan Harris, 4

* Temple's record now improves to (11-7)(3-1) with Saturday's win. This gives the team another winning streak to extend. Their next game will put them back on the road Wednesday night against Rhode Island.

Semaj Inge scored 19 points in tonight's game- this matches the season high he had against Penn State back on December 6th. He played a major factor in this game, as Dionte Christmas did not play a complete game.

Tonight's overall statistics show a team effort, something the Owls have been inconsistent in forming. 4 of the 5 starters managed to get into double digits tonight, which is very impressive for this team. Hopefully as we said this will spark Inge to have a more productive season from here on out.

* Charlotte will go on now with a record of (6-12)(1-4) overall. They will move on to take on 13th ranked Xavier on Wednesday as well. The Musketeers will come off of a victory over LSU tonight.

Ian Anderson has proven to be a legitimate and efficient scorer off the bench. It would be interesting to see him inserted into the line up, giving him the opportunity to potentially do more.

Along with Anderson, Lamont Mack and Phil Jones carried this team through the game. In their upcoming matchup against Xavier, it will be crucial to get all the support that they can get.

Final Score: Temple 80, Charlotte 53
