At the end of last season, Temple Women’s Basketball guard Kaylah Turner had an important decision to make. She was coming off an impressive freshman season at Alabama A&M but wanted to find a school that could utilize her skill set to her full potential. Turner decided to hit the portal and fell in love with the Owls’ staff, leading her to North Broad Street. The first few weeks of the season were difficult for Turner as she struggled to adjust to her new environment. 

Head coach Diane Richardson saw the same skill set in her as former guard Aleah Nelson and worked to give Turner advice. Turner initially took the advice personally but has learned to trust her coaches and is now flourishing for the Owls off the bench. She is Temple’s third-leading scorer and has stepped into an even larger role in the last few weeks. Turner is averaging 11 points per game in conference play so far, including a 25-point outburst against FAU to help lead the Owls to an overtime win. Now that she has found her role, Turner hopes to lead Temple on another run in March. 

“Mentally it was tough,” Turner said. “I started all the games last year and to come here and not it was a little tough. But, you don’t grow unless you’re in a different environment and you have a challenge. That’s something I’m still overcoming and it’s helping me grow.”
