PHILADELPHIA - Temple University men's basketball coach Fran Dunphy announced today the signing of two highly-touted recruits, Alani Moore and Quinton Rose, to National Letters of Intent.
"We are excited to welcome Alani and Quinton to the Temple Basketball family," said Dunphy. "These are not only talented young men on the court, but outstanding citizens who will be a great fit as teammates. They will play a big part in helping the program continue its storied history of success."
Moore, a 5-10, 150-pound point guard, will play at Friendship Collegiate Academy (Washington, D.C.) this season after starring at Montrose Christian in 2014-15. The Hyattsville, Md., native averaged 17.4 points per game for Montrose as junior to earn first team All-Met honors.
Rose, a 6-6, 175-pound guard out of Bishop Kearney in Rochester, N.Y., averaged 15.4 points, seven rebounds and seven assists during the 2014-15 season. The three-year varsity performer earned a spot on the 15-player Democrat and Chronicle All-Greater Rochester Team in 2015.
The Owls open the season against #1 North Carolina on Friday (7:00 p.m./CBS Sports Network) at the Veterans Classic held in Annapolis, Md.
Tickets for Temple men's basketball games can be purchased via phone at 1-800-298-4200, online at OwlsTix.com or in person at the Liacouras Center Box Office.
