New Mexico State Aggies Set to Face Santa Clara Broncos at Leavey Center

As the New Mexico State Aggies prepare to face off against the Santa Clara Broncos at the Leavey Center, fans can expect an electrifying game. The NMSU's recent performance has been nothing short of impressive, and their upcoming encounter promises to be a showcase of their growing prowess on the court.

In their last game on December 6th, NMSU dominated Simon Fraser with a commanding 77-35 victory. Their offensive execution was clinical, shooting 40 percent from the field and an even more impressive 50 percent from inside the arc. They also outrebounded their opponents with a total of 53 rebounds, highlighting their control in both offense and defense.

The defensive efforts by NMSU cannot be overstated; they managed to rack up 12 steals which translated into 23 points off turnovers. This aggressive defense is likely to pose significant challenges for Santa Clara. Moreover, with an assists turnover ratio of nearly two (1.88), it's clear that NMSU values possession and capitalizes on every opportunity.

Comparatively, in another recent game against UTEP Miners on December 1st, NMSU showcased their scoring depth by putting up an astounding 95 points. Their shooting was even more remarkable in this matchup as they achieved a field goal percentage of nearly 58 percent and were lethal from beyond the arc with a three-point shooting percentage at an even 50 percent.

However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for NMSU; they faced a tough challenge against UC Irvine Anteaters back on November 27th where they fell short at Orleans Arena during what was dubbed as Championship Game. Despite losing that battle with final scores reading UC Irvine Anteaters'85 - New Mexico State Aggies'68', it's important to note that NMSU still managed respectable figures such as converting over one-third of two-point attempts (34 percent) and maintaining strong three-point efficiency (41 percent).

The upcoming clash will test whether NMSU can maintain its high-octane offense while tightening up any defensive lapses witnessed during past performances. The Broncos are not opponents who can be taken lightly; any complacency could result in an upset.

NMSU fans should mark their calendars for December 7th when these two teams will go head-to-head at Leavey Center in Santa Clara at precisely eight o'clock PM local time (8:00 PM).
