Head coach Keitha Adams said ‘respect everyone and fear no one’ after the women’s basketball team beat the Temple Owls 71-61 in the first round of the American Athletic Conference Championship on March 6.
The win on Monday afternoon marks the Shockers’ second win against the Owls this season. Wichita State only committed 12 turnovers and lost a close rebound battle with the Owls,38-35. On the flip side, the Shockers scored 21 points off of Temple’s 13 turnovers.
“We’ve been on the other end of that where other teams have scored off of ours,” Adams said. “One of the things I’ve told our team is that when we take good care of basketball, and then we really rebound the ball well, we’ve played really well and had good results when we’ve done those two things.
