Last Time Out
The Pirates battled back to erase a first-half deficit but were unable to finish the deal as Rice pulled away late on Saturday. Anzhané Hutton paced three Pirates in double figures with 16 points as well as a game-high nine rebounds. The team managed to take the lead on multiple occasions in the third quarter but as they have a knack for doing, Rice hit the big shots down the stretch and finished the game on a 7-0 run for the victory.
Scouting Temple
The Owls enter the game at 11-6 with a terrific 5-1 record in league play, having won three-straight games entering Wednesday's contest. Tiarra East still poses a particular challenge to opponents with her 14.6 points and 5.1 rebounds per game while Tarriyonna Gary, who lit up the Pirates for 26 points in the teams' first meeting of the season, contributes 11.4 per game.
Series History
The Owls pushed their series lead to 13-4 with a win in Philadelphia earlier in the season and Temple continues to have the Pirates' number. Jayla Hearp led the team in scoring with 19 points along with her six steals while Anzhané Hutton contributed her first double-double of the season with 11 points and 10 rebounds.
