Air Force Falcons Welcome New Mexico Lobos to Clune Arena for Women's Basketball Battle

As the Air Force Falcons prepare to host the New Mexico Lobos at Clune Arena, fans are eager to see if the home team can capitalize on their recent victory and maintain momentum. The Falcons' performance has been a mixed bag in their past few outings, with a notable win against Weber State Wildcats at home but suffering losses on the road against SMU Mustangs and Clemson Tigers.


Air Force Falcons VS New Mexico Lobos

The recent victory at Clune Arena showcased the Falcons' resilience, overcoming a competitive Wildcats team with a final score of 70-58. Their defensive prowess was evident with 11 steals and four blocks, while offensively they shot 40 percent from beyond the arc. This balanced attack is something they'll look to replicate against the Lobos.


However, consistency has been an issue for Air Force. In their game against SMU Mustangs, they struggled significantly from the field with only a 25 percent shooting rate and were outrebounded by a margin that led to a heavy defeat of 44-75. Similarly, against Clemson Tigers despite an improved three-point shooting percentage of approximately 39 percent, turnovers proved costly as they fell short with a score of 54-70.


The key for Air Force will be maintaining strong defense without fouling excessively (21 personal fouls in their win) and finding rhythm early in offense to avoid playing catch-up basketball. With Clune Arena providing familiar territory and support from home fans, it could be just what Air Force needs to secure another win.


Looking ahead to January 27th at Clune Arena in Colorado Springs where tip-off is scheduled for 8 PM local time; fans can expect an exciting matchup as both teams vie for dominance on court. For those unable to attend in person, details regarding broadcast options will be available closer to game day ensuring all supporters have access to cheer on their team.
