Three new members were inducted into the Temple Basketball Ring of Honor at halftime of Saturday's win over NJIT. These individuals, Bruce Drysdale, Bill "Pickles" Kennedy and Jay Norman, who are all members of the Philadelphia Big 5 and Temple Athletics Hall of Fames, will have their names permanently displayed in the Temple Basketball Ring of Honor that adorns the walls above the upper bowl of the Liacouras Center.
Drysdale, a product of Philadelphia's Lincoln High, starred for the Owls from 1959 through 1962. The 5-10 guard averaged 17.8 points over his three-year career helping lead the Cherry and White to the NIT each season.
