PHILADELPHIA - The Temple men's soccer team fell 4-0 to Penn on Friday night from Rhodes Field despite a strong effort. With the loss, the Owls' record shifts to 1-2-2, while the Quakers move up to 2-0-0.
Despite being out-shot 13-1 in the first half, the Owls kept the match competitive throughout the first 45 minutes. Flannan Riley was strong in goal in the first, hauling in five saves through the first half. This included a stretch of three Quaker shots in the 31st minute, where the Owls were able to deny Penn from scoring as Riley denied the Quaker attack with an impressive diving save. By the final whistle, Riley ended the night with seven saves. On the offensive side of the ball, Elias Betancourt led the Owls as he connected on two shots, with both being on goal.
Next, the Owls will face another Philly Soccer Six opponent as they stay in West Philadelphia to play the Drexel Dragons on Tuesday night. The action is slated to start at 6 p.m. from Vidas Field.
