For the first time since 2008, three of the City Six campuses are reveling in celebration. This year will be Temple's sixth consecutive NCAA appearance under coach Dunphy. The mood was joyous outside Temple's Liacouras Center as the Owls left for the airport. Swingman Scootie Randall said that he was sick of "one and done" trips to the tournament and that the team had been watching footage to prepare for Friday's game. "It's just another opportunity to go out there and play," he said. "We're in for a battle."
