Temple men's basketball shows character

This Temple season really could have spun out of control when key players were lost to injury. It did not, though. The wins kept coming. Why? It's the Philly guys, two from the Public League and one from South Jersey. "It's the guys you can study the most," Temple coach Fran Dunphy said. "I think there's been a tremendous resiliency with this group," he said. "The fact that we got hurt late in the season didn't help us in terms of being better, but we've been more resilient and I really appreciate the character of the group."
