Gomez Sanchez scores lone goal in Owls’ first road win

In their second road game in four days, the Owls beat Penn State 1-0 at Jeffrey Field on Tuesday.

Temple (6-3, 0-1 American Athletic Conference) held the Nittany Lions scoreless, which allowed senior midfielder Jorge Gomez Sanchez’s goal, assisted by junior midfielder/forward Joonas Jokinen, in the 84th minute to be the game-winner. This is the 10th goal for Gomez Sanchez this season.

“I think it went great,” head coach David MacWilliams said. “Obviously, we had heavy legs since we played Saturday and traveled both days, so we knew we had to keep the game tight early on.
