Clemson Tigers Set to Host East Tennessee State Buccaneers at Littlejohn Coliseum in Women's Basketball Showdown

As the Clemson Tigers prepare to welcome the East Tennessee State Buccaneers to Littlejohn Coliseum for an exciting women's basketball game, fans are eager to see if the home team can continue their recent success on their own court.

The Tigers have been showing a strong performance trend in their recent games. In their last home game against Duke Blue Devils, they secured an impressive victory with a score of 80-64. Their shooting was particularly effective; they hit over half of their field goals and were exceptional from beyond the arc with a three-point shooting percentage of 61. The team also demonstrated solid ball distribution with 15 assists and maintained control of the game by limiting turnovers.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Clemson in previous matches. When they faced Auburn away from home, they struggled significantly and were defeated with a final score of 53-83. Turnovers were a major issue as they gave up possession 29 times which Auburn capitalized on by scoring 29 points off those turnovers.


Despite that setback, Clemson bounced back impressively against Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions with an overwhelming victory scoring 92 points while allowing only 66 against them. Their rebounding was dominant as they collected nearly double the rebounds compared to Arkansas-Pine Bluff and once again showcased efficient shooting both from two-point range (47 percent) and three-point range (52 percent).


With these performances in mind, fans can expect Clemson Tigers to leverage their home-court advantage at Littlejohn Coliseum where they have recently shown strong offensive capabilities and resilience after setbacks.


For those looking forward to catching this matchup live or through broadcasts, remember that it will take place on December 22nd at Littlejohn Coliseum in Clemson, SC – an arena known for its vibrant atmosphere that could give the Tigers an additional edge over East Tennessee State Buccaneers.
