A matchup against in-state foe Temple started off badly for Penn State Wednesday night in Philadelphia, and it didn't improve.
Falling behind early proved to be too much for the Nittany Lions (2-5-2), as they would limp away from the affair with a 3-0 defeat.
In just the 3rd minute of the game, Temple’s Alan Soto Camacho gave the Owls (3-5-1) the lead, putting the Nittany Lions behind right from the start.
It only got worse.
In the 15th minute Thibault Candia netted his third goal of the season for the Owls, digging Penn State into a 2-0 hole with 75 minutes still to play.
