Their two-point attempts were also fruitful, hitting at 56 percent. This offensive prowess was complemented by their defensive tenacity, which saw them rack up 17 steals.

However, in their matchup against George Mason Patriots, despite putting up a strong fight and leading by eleven points at halftime, Tulane fell short by three points in what was a closely contested battle that ended with them scoring 66 points.


As they head into enemy territory on February 11th at FedExForum in Memphis TN – broadcasted live on ESPN Networks – it will be crucial for Tulane to leverage their high-scoring offense while tightening up any defensive lapses that have cost them in past games. With recent performances indicating an upward trend in both offensive execution and defensive pressure, fans can expect nothing less than maximum effort as Tulane aims to continue its winning momentum away from home.
