Junior forward Obi Enechionyia’s 20 points were not enough to prevent an 80-69 loss to East Carolina in the first round of the American Athletic Conference tournament on Thursday in Hartford, Connecticut.
Redshirt-senior swingman Daniel Dingle scored 15 points, but he could not convert two game-tying opportunities late in Temple’s 56-50 loss to Cincinnati on Wednesday at the Liacouras Center.
Temple held Tulane to eight first-half points, the lowest ever in any half at the Liacouras Center, en route to extending its winning run with a 55-37 victory Saturday.
