PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Langston Galloway scored 22 points while Carl Jones and Ronald Roberts each added 18 to lead Saint Joseph's to an 82-72 victory over No. 22 Temple on Saturday. Halil Kanacevic added 14 points and 12 rebounds for the Hawks (19-11, 9-6 Atlantic 10), who snapped the Owls' 11-game winning streak. Rahlir Hollis-Jefferson and Ramone Moore had 15 points for the Owls (22-6, 11-3), who needed a win to clinch the A-10 regular-season title. St. Joe's took control with a 14-3 run over 5½ minutes late in the second half, with Galloway's two free throws capping it and putting the Hawks ahead 78-65 with 2:36 remaining. C.J. Aiken put the exclamation point on the victory with a thunderous one-handed dunk with 1:42 remaining.
