Thompson, Stout and Meyer led the Scarlet Knights in their second match of the day against Fairfield, as they each contributed eight kills. Young and Neba rounded out the offensive effort with seven kills apiece. Freshman Roxy Calder (Oceanside, CA) notched a match-high 37 assists and tied junior Jocelyn Greenwald (Old Tappan, NJ) for the team high with seven digs.

The Owls later topped UMBC 3-1 (23-30, 30-27, 30-12, 30-27) in the third match of day two. Temple battle back from an early 1-0 deficit, due in large part to the play of Egan and Christina DeMarco. Egan and DeMarco each tallied a match-high 16 kills to help power Temple's offense.
