Temple at Richmond

RICHMOND, Va. (Interstat) — A pair of teams with matching 3-1 records will meet Tuesday when the Temple Owls visit the Richmond Spiders in a nonconference women’s basketball matchup at the Robins Center.

Both squads are looking to build on decisive victories from last weekend. Temple is coming off a 75-54 home win over La Salle on Friday, powered by a double-double from Jaleesa Molina, who had 11 points and 10 rebounds. Saniyah Craig also posted a double-double with 11 points and 11 boards.

Richmond arrives following a 77-67 road victory against Columbia on Saturday. Maggie Doogan led the way for the Spiders, falling just shy of a double-double with 16 points and nine rebounds, while Alicia Newell added 16 points.

The Owls’ lone loss was an 89-61 defeat at West Virginia on Nov. 11. Similarly, the Spiders’ only blemish is an 85-56 loss at Texas on Nov. 7. Both teams have otherwise dominated their other opponents, setting the stage for a tightly contested midweek game.

Tipoff is set for Tuesday night in Richmond.
