Temple (5-9) fell to the University of Pennsylvania, 3-0, on Sunday, snapping a four-game winning streak for the team.
The story of the game for the Owls was an inability to execute their defense on corners, giving up two goals to Quakers’ junior forward Alexa Hoover off those chances. The Quakers had 13 corners in the game, compared to only four for the Owls.
“We understood what the objective was against Penn”, coach Marybeth Freeman said. “We unfortunately weren’t able to execute.”
Scoring chances were limited in the first half, as the teams combined for seven shots and five corner chances.
