TEMPLE 50, PENN 46
PHILADELPHIA—Dustin Salisbery scored 21 points and Mardy Collins had 13 to lead Temple to a 50-46 win over Penn in the second game of a Palestra doubleheader Saturday.
Temple coach John Chaney continued his mastery over the Quakers, improving his career record to 23-3 against the Ivy League school.
The Owls (3-2) could have put this one away easily at the free-throw line late in the second half, but went only 5-for-12 in the final two minutes and 8-for-15 from the line overall to keep Penn in the game.
Ibrahim Jaaber scored 17 points and David Whitehurst scored all 10 of his points in the first half for the Quakers (3-2).
Antywane Robinson scored 10 points and the Owls went 6-for-17 from three-point range.
After Penn opened the game on an 8-0 run and controlled the first half, Temple used a 17-4 spurt capped by a Robinson three-pointer to open the second and grabbed a 37-31 lead.
Jaaber, though, rallied the Quakers with free throws, a pull-up jumper and tying driving layup that evened the score at 39-all. Salisbery put the Owls ahead for good with a three-pointer and Dion Dacons made one of two free throws for a 43-39 lead.
Dacons missed three other free throws down the stretch. The Owls attempted 13 of their 15 free throws in the second half.
Eric Osmundson, Mark Zoller, and Jaaber each hit shots late in the second half that pulled the Quakers within one, but they just failed to get the big basket that would put them ahead, even with the Owls missing free throws.
