The sophomore netted 22 of Temple's total 33 second-half points to get her team within four points with three and a half minutes to play. She also dished a game-high three assists and was perfect from long range (3-of-3). She was nearly flawless from the charity stripe (5-of-6) and is shooting 87% from the free throw line this season. She also leads four Owls in double figures.
