In the first of two matches at Walsh Gymnasium at Seton Hall University Saturday, Temple defeated the University Notre Dame in a four tight sets for its fourth straight win this season.
“I think overall we played good,” coach Bakeer Ganesharatnam said. “This is a very talented and young Notre Dame team. They have a lot of height and athleticism. This was a great win for us.”
In the first set, the Owls (4–1) were able to overcome an early deficit with the help of six kills from junior middle blocker Kirsten Overton and four kills from sophomore outside hitter Irem Asci to claim the set 25–22.
