With just two games remaining in the regular season and the Owls firmly on the NCAA Tournament bubble, Temple could afford few mistakes Thursday night at East Carolina.
After a 25-minute delay due to lighting issues, the Owls and Pirates would finally be able to get the game underway.
Temple would appear to be shooting in the dark in the early minutes, but would use a late first half run to take the lead, one they would not relinquish in a 70-56 win over ECU.

The Owls would struggle in the early going, quickly falling behind 11-3, but would begin to find the basket with ease as the half wore on.
With the help of 16-4 run late in the half, Temple would take the lead, eventually heading to the locker room at the half up 41-33 over ECU.
The Owls would shoot the lights out in the half, going 15-for-29 from the field, including 7-for-13 from beyond the arc.
Temple would remain in control throughout the second half, picking up a 70-56 win over the Prates on the road to improve to 21-9 on the season.
Will Cummings led the way for the Owls in the win, recording 16 points, seven rebounds, six assists and three steals.
Temple will have a quick turnaround, returning home to face Connecticut on Saturday for the regular season finale.
