Fresno State Bulldogs Set to Clash with Cal Poly Mustangs at Save Mart Center
As the Fresno State Bulldogs prepare to host the Cal Poly Mustangs at the Save Mart Center, fans are buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be an electrifying game of Women's Basketball. The Bulldogs, coming off a decisive 54-40 victory over UC Riverside Highlanders on November 16, are looking to maintain their momentum and secure another win in front of their home crowd.
The previous game saw the FRES team exhibit a strong defense, holding the Highlanders to just 40 points. Their offense was consistent throughout, but they particularly shone in the second quarter where they racked up 17 points. This level of performance is something that fans have come to expect from this squad and will be crucial when facing CP.
In contrast, FRES had a close call against Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners on November 12 where they fell short by just three points in a nail-biting finish. Despite outscoring CSB in the final quarter with an impressive 19 points rally, it wasn't enough to overcome a third-quarter slump where they allowed CSB an overwhelming 28 points. This loss should serve as a lesson for FRES – every quarter counts and letting their guard down even momentarily can have dire consequences.
However, it's worth noting that earlier in November (8th), FRES showcased their offensive prowess by putting up an impressive total of 66 points against Fresno Pacific Sunbirds. That game highlighted their ability not only to start strong but also finish with authority by scoring 24 points in the fourth quarter alone.
The upcoming matchup against CP will test both teams' endurance and strategy. While CP comes into this game as underdogs based on recent performances from both teams, basketball is unpredictable and any lapse in concentration from FRES could turn the tables quickly.
Fresno State Bulldogs must leverage their home-court advantage at Save Mart Center – where they've shown both resilience and dominance – if they want to come out on top once again. Fans should expect aggressive defense from FRES right out of the gate while looking for them to exploit any weaknesses in CP's lineup through fast breaks and sharpshooting from beyond the arc.
With all eyes set on November 19 at Save Mart Center located at Fresno CA zip code:93710; tip-off scheduled for what translates into local time as Friday evening at 6:00 PM PST (9:00 PM EST), fans can't attend or tune into any broadcast networks but should keep close tabs through live updates or streaming services that may cover this thrilling encounter between two determined college basketball teams.
