Liberty Flames Set to Clash with Boyce Bulldogs at Liberty Arena in Men's Basketball
As the Liberty Flames prepare to host the Boyce Bulldogs at Liberty Arena, fans are eager for what promises to be an electrifying game of men's basketball. The Flames have been on a remarkable run, and their recent performance suggests they're ready to turn up the heat once more.
In their last outing on December 16 against St. Andrews Knights, the Flames showcased an offensive masterclass, racking up 99 points with a staggering field goal percentage of 51 percent and sinking an impressive 40 percent from beyond the arc. Their dominance was not just limited to scoring; they also outrebounded their opponents with a total of 56 rebounds and displayed exceptional ball movement that resulted in 34 assists.
The defensive prowess of LIB cannot be overlooked either. With eight steals against St. Andrews Knights and five blocks against Tennessee State Tigers on December 14, they've proven that they can lock down opponents when it matters most.
However, it would be remiss not to acknowledge that even titans stumble as evidenced by LIB's narrow defeat against Grand Canyon Antelopes on December 9. Despite this setback where they fell short by five points, there were still positives such as maintaining a solid two-point field goal percentage of around 47 percent.
The upcoming match presents an opportunity for redemption and further consolidation for LIB. The Boyce Bulldogs will undoubtedly come prepared but facing a team like LIB at home is no small feat. The Flames' ability to score both inside the paint and from long range makes them formidable opponents.
LIB fans should expect their team to control the pace of the game early on January 1st at Liberty Arena in Lynchburg, VA. With such depth in offense coupled with tenacious defense, it’s hard not to foresee another win added to their column as we usher in the new year.
For those who bleed red, white, and blue – mark your calendars for January 1st at 11:00 AM Eastern Time when you can catch all the action live from Liberty Arena or stream it via ESPN+. This is one game you won't want to miss!
