Temple freshman Trey Lowe was injured in a car accident over the weekend and will likely miss the rest of the season, according to the team.

Lowe was involved in a one-car accident early Sunday morning, the team said in a release and is currently receiving medical care at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in East Brunswick, N.J. for “upper body injuries.”

"I visited Trey and his family on both Sunday and Monday at the hospital," Temple coach Fran Dunphy said in a statement. "Our thoughts and prayers are with them at this time and we are hopeful that he will make a full recovery."

Lowe, a native of Ewing, N.J., had played in all 28 games for the Owls this season and made five starts. He averaged 4.8 points and 1.5 rebounds per game and notched a career-high 21 points against then-No. 1 Villanova on Feb. 17.

Temple (18-10, 12-4 American) is in action again this Thursday, hosting Memphis.
