The other shoe finally dropped for the men’s basketball team.Fran Dunphy

The Owls snuck out of the Liacouras Center with back-to-back overtime victories against Massachussetts and Rhode Island earlier in the week, but didn’t have enough to hang with host Dayton Saturday afternoon. Temple lost to the Flyers, 77-66, at the University of Dayton Arena.

With the loss, the Owls (13-11 overall) dropped to 6-4 in the ever-tight Atlantic Ten Conference.

Next up for the Owls is a road matchup with Saint Bonaventure (7-16, 1-8 A-10) Wednesday at 7 p.m.
