Sophomore distance runner Millie Howard won the mile run to help Temple place sixth at the American Athletic Conference indoor championship meet on Friday and Saturday in Birmingham, Alabama.
Senior guard Tanaya Atkinson recorded her 15th double-double of the season and made the game-winning free throw in Temple’s 65-64 win against East Carolina on Saturday in Greenville, North Carolina.
Temple needs to win at least four of its next seven games to achieve bowl-eligible status, but coach Geoff Collins said teams ‘fall apart’ when they start weighing importances of games.
