Bulldogs Brace for Battle at Grand Canyon University Arena
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs fans, the anticipation is palpable as your team prepares to face off against the Grand Canyon Antelopes in what promises to be a riveting encounter at the Grand Canyon University Arena. The Bulldogs, coming off a mixed bag of performances, are looking to assert their dominance on December 30th.
In their last outing on December 21st against Seattle Redhawks, LT displayed a gritty performance but fell short in overtime with a final score of 73-79. Despite this setback, there were positive takeaways; notably, the Bulldogs' impressive rebounding prowess as they hauled down 48 boards and dominated points in the paint with 42. However, shooting inefficiencies from beyond the arc where they shot just 17 percent could not be overlooked.
Earlier on December 17th against Saint Louis Billikens, LT showed resilience by nearly overturning a halftime deficit but ultimately succumbed by one point in a nail-biter finish of 74-75. The second-half surge was powered by an improved field goal percentage and an aggressive approach that saw them visit the free-throw line frequently.
However, it's not all doom and gloom for LT fans. On December 13th versus Southeastern Louisiana Lions at home ground Thomas Assembly Center, Louisiana Tech showcased what they are capable of when firing on all cylinders – an emphatic victory with an imposing scoreline of 89-60. Their defensive tenacity led to creating turnovers from which they scored 17 points and their three-point shooting was scorching hot at a remarkable rate of 54 percent.
The upcoming game against GC poses both challenges and opportunities for LT. The Antelopes will have home-court advantage but if Louisiana Tech can replicate their high-energy defense while improving shot selection from downtown as seen in previous games – particularly like that dominant performance back home – then victory is well within reach.
As we count down to tip-off time scheduled for December 30th at precisely seven o'clock PM Central Time (CT), fans can catch every moment live via ESPN+ online network. This clash promises to be more than just another game; it's an opportunity for Louisiana Tech Bulldogs to prove that resilience is their trademark and winning away from home is within their grasp.
