Men's Basketball Loses a Heartbreaker to Saint Joseph's in Overtime, 66-65

PHILADELPHIA - After tying the score to force overtime, Temple men's basketball came up one point short against Saint Joseph's in a heartbreaking 66-65 Philadelphia Big 5 loss on Sunday afternoon at the Liacouras Center. Sophomore Obi Enechionyia and junior Josh Brown both had big nights for the Owls, recording their first career double-doubles.

The ball was in Enechionyia's hands after a rebound in the final seconds of overtime, but despite hitting 4-of-6 from long range to that point, his seventh attempt missed as time expired.

Enechionyia scored a career and game-high 25 points to go with a career and team-high 13 rebounds, while Brown added a career-high 12 rebounds to a season-high 13 points.
