TEMPLE OWLS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Diane Richardson directs a 13-player Temple roster navigating a challenging 2024-25 season in the American Athletic Conference with an 11-14 overall record. Playing in the 10,000-seat Liacouras Center in Philadelphia, the Owls score 67.8 points per game while allowing 69.2, reflecting a balanced but inconsistent offensive attack. Temple's home court advantage is evident in their 7-6 home record compared to a 4-8 away mark, with conference play proving particularly difficult at 3-8 in AAC competition.
Founded in 1888 and now serving 30,005 students across North Philadelphia, Temple University's women's basketball program competes at the D1-FBS level within a conference that has positioned the Owls among competitive mid-major programs. Richardson's squad faces the strategic challenge of improving ball security and perimeter shooting consistency while capitalizing on their four-point scoring margin disparity. The team's relatively close loss margins and nearly even home-road performance suggest the roster possesses enough talent to climb back to .500, though road consistency remains the primary hurdle for the remainder of their schedule.
