Temple, Memphis tie in double overtime

As senior midfielder Jorge Gomez Sanchez watched his shot go wide of the net, he stretched his shirt over his head in frustration.

The Owls (6-3-1, 0-1-1) failed to capitalize on scoring opportunities in their 0-0 tie after double overtime against Memphis on Saturday at the Temple Sports Complex. This was the first home game this season the Owls didn’t win.

Temple finished the night with 25 shots, seven of which were on target, but wasn’t able to turn any of its chances into a goal in its first conference home game of the season.

“We’ve got to take advantage of the opportunities that we had tonight,” coach David MacWilliams.
