Temple and Delaware stay perfect; Villanova, La Salle and St. Joe’s fall

Temple came from behind to beat Pitt in the first meeting between the two teams in 37 years.

Jorge Gomez Sanchez rifled home a late winner to lead Temple to their third straight win to start the season over Pitt on Friday in the renewal of a state derby that hasn’t been staged since 1979.

Freshman George McGee set up the 86th minute winner after stealing a ball down the right flank and sending a cross in deflected by a Pitt defender right to Gomez Sanchez, who wasted no time hitting a lone liner that beat the keeper at the far post.
