Iowa State Cyclones Welcome Butler Bulldogs to James H. Hilton Coliseum for Women's Basketball Showdown
As the Iowa State Cyclones prepare to host the Butler Bulldogs at the James H. Hilton Coliseum, fans are gearing up for what promises to be an exciting encounter in women's basketball. The Cyclones, playing on their home court, will look to leverage their previous season's performance and trends as they face off against their opponents.
Last season, the Iowa State Cyclones showcased a solid game with a field goal percentage of 42 and an impressive free throw percentage of 80. Their true shooting percentage stood at 54, indicating efficient scoring from all areas of the court. The team also had a decent three-point shooting record with a 33 percent success rate and were stronger inside the arc with nearly half of their two-point shots finding the net.
Defensively, Iowa State was disciplined, committing just over 15 personal fouls per game on average. They were also active on both ends of the floor with over six steals and more than four blocks per game – numbers that speak volumes about their defensive prowess.
On offense, they averaged about 75 points per game thanks in part to making an average of eight three-pointers and over seventeen two-pointers each outing. Their assist numbers stood at nearly fifteen per game showing good ball movement while pulling down approximately thirty-eight rebounds demonstrated control under both baskets.
However, turnovers were a concern as they averaged close to thirteen per game last season; maintaining possession will be crucial against Butler Bulldogs' defense.
The upcoming match is set against this backdrop of solid statistics from last year's campaign which suggests that if Iowa State can keep up these trends while tightening up ball security, they could have a successful outing in front of their home crowd.
Fans can catch all the action on November 6th at James H. Hilton Coliseum in Ames starting at 5 PM local time (17:00 UTC). While there are no broadcast networks listed for this event yet, supporters should stay tuned for updates on where they can follow along live as these two teams clash on court.
