Seasons edit

NCAA Tournament history edit

Temple has appeared in seven NCAA Tournaments. Their most recent appearance came in 1985.[4]

Rivalries edit

Located in Philadelphia, the program has long-standing historic rivals with the other university's soccer programs in the area.[5] This includes Drexel of the Colonial Athletic Association, La Salle and Saint Joseph's of the Atlantic 10 Conference, Penn of the Ivy League, and Villanova of the Big East Conference.[6] These five schools are among the Temple's most played opponents. Additionally, Temple has regularly played against Philadelphia U, Penn State, Delaware and Lafayette, due to the school's proximity to Temple.[7]

Historically, the Owls have been rivals with West Chester, but the two sides are now in different divisions, and have not met since 1997.[7]
