Temple basketball honored some of its all-time greats with induction into the Ring of Honor during the Owls win over East Carolina on Saturday afternoon. John Baum and Jim Williams, both members of the Philadelphia Big 5 and Temple Athletics Hall of Fames, were honored in a halftime ceremony and now have their names permanently displayed in the Temple Basketball Ring of Honor that adorns the walls above the upper bowl of the Liacouras Center.
Williams starred for Temple from 1963-64 through 1965-66 and has the distinction of being the only Owl ever to lead his team in scoring and rebounding for three straight seasons.
