How It Happened
Penn pressed the action early and often, starting with a shot from Ben Stitz in the opening minute that Temple keeper Eoin Gawronski saved. Isaac McGinnis had an opportunity in the 17^th minute that Gawronski also kept out.

Aaron Messer came mere inches away from his first collegiate goal in the 20^th minute, his attempt deflecting off the crossbar near the right post.

Temple broke onto the score sheet first with a counter-attack goal in the 24^th minute, with unsuccessful attempts from Stas Korzeniowski and Messer following in the ensuing four minutes. In all, Penn finished the opening half with four shots on goal.

The Red and Blue continued the offensive pressure into the second half., with Nick Schimbeno and Messer each registering shots in the box that were blocked in the 59^th minute.

Just one minute later, off a brilliantly placed ball into the box from McGinnis, Burney made a bid for his second goal of the season, which Gawronski denied, but deflected right to Schimbeno who knocked in the loose ball to even the match.

Charlie Gaffney had a good look in the 78^th minute, but was denied by Micah Ramirez who had come in for Gawronski a few minutes prior.

Three more corner kicks and two more on-target attempts from Schimbeno and Michael teDuits followed down the stretch, but Penn was unable to push the go-ahead score across in a wild affair that ended with six yellow cards and eight fouls in just the final 41 minutes of action.
