Women's Basketball Defeats Cincinnati for Fifth-Straight Win

CINCINNATI -- The Temple women's basketball team led buzzer-to-buzzer against Cincinnati, picking up a 74-49 victory on the road on Tuesday night. The win was the fifth-straight for the Owls, who improve to 16-7 overall, 10-2 in conference play. Cincinnati dips to 7-16 overall, 3-9 in The American.

Temple's defense again came up big, as the Owls held the Bearcats to just eight first-quarter points and didn't look back. Temple finished the game out-shooting and out-rebounding Cincinnati, while turning the ball over just four times, a season-low. The four turnovers by Temple was also a program low, since a three turnover performance against Villanova in 2004.
