The team's field goal percentage stood around 41 percent and free throw accuracy at about 70 percent. They managed to keep turnovers nonexistent but were outdone by Saint Louis' sharp three-point shooting.


However, it's not all been setbacks for Louisiana Tech; they secured an emphatic victory over Southeastern Louisiana Lions with an impressive scoreline of 89-60 on home turf. The team excelled in steals (11) and assists (19), indicating strong defensive pressure and good ball movement on offense. Their three-point shooting was particularly noteworthy at approximately 54 percent.


The venue may play its part as well; Pete Mathews Coliseum is known for its vibrant atmosphere which could pose an additional challenge for the visiting Bulldogs.
