Owls held scoreless on slippery night

It was a cold, misty night at the Temple Sports Complex on Saturday as Temple (6-3-1, 0-1-1 American Athletic Conference) took on the Memphis Tigers in its conference home-opener. With slick conditions on the playing field, both teams had a difficult time finding their footing on offense in the scoreless draw.

“I think the boys like it a little slick on the field,” senior defender Stefan Mueller said. “I know that Memphis never plays on turf, so it was difficult for them because they have a grass field. The conditions made the ball move fast tonight, but both teams had to adjust.
