NEW YORK (AP) – Temple’s season could have ended in mid-March with the Owls still sagging from their NCAA Tournament snub.
Playing three days after the selection committee made them the first team left out of the field, they came out sluggish in their NIT opener and trailed with just over 11 minutes left.
Then their senior point guard, Will Cummings, ensured his college career would last much longer than those 11 minutes. Ever since, Temple has looked sharp, and now the Owls are headed to Madison Square Garden for Tuesday’s NIT semifinals.
