PHILADELPHIA - In the midst of its longest win streak in 14 years, Temple lacrosse has earned a #20 national ranking in the latest Nike/Lacrosse Magazine Division I Women's Top 20 Poll. The Owls lost a close game to #16 Louisville to start the season, but have since won seven straight to stand at 7-1 overall.
Temple is also receiving votes in another poll, the Inside Lacrosse Division I Women's Media Top 20. The Owls' seven-game win streak is the longest for the program since 2002, when Temple won eight straight including the title game in the Atlantic 10 Tournament.
