Liberty Lady Flames Host Tennessee Lady Volunteers in Lynchburg Showdown

As the Liberty Lady Flames prepare to face off against the Tennessee Lady Volunteers at Liberty Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can bounce back from recent setbacks. The upcoming Women's Basketball game on December 31st is not just another fixture; it's a chance for redemption.


Liberty Lady Flames VS Tennessee Lady Volunteers

The last outing for the Liberty Lady Flames was a tough lesson in efficiency and consistency. On December 16th, they faced the Richmond Spiders and put up an impressive 73 points. However, their defense allowed a staggering 99 points, highlighting areas that need tightening up before their next challenge.


Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways for the Liberty team. Their field goal percentage stood at 48 percent and they shot an excellent 50 percent from beyond the arc. These are numbers that can win games if coupled with disciplined defense. The free throw line also saw them excel with an accuracy of almost 87 percent.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing as turnovers proved costly; giving away possession twenty times is something that Coach Green will have been drilling into his players cannot be repeated against Tennessee.


In contrast, when looking at their performance against Radford Highlanders on December 13th where they scored only 45 points while allowing 57 points indicates inconsistency in scoring as well as defensive lapses which must be addressed immediately.


The game against North Carolina State Wolfpack on December 10th showed resilience from LIB despite falling short by thirteen points (67-80). They managed to block eight shots and had fifteen assists but again turnovers and shooting percentages were less than ideal with only a third of three-point attempts finding the net.


The upcoming game will require LIB to harness their shooting prowess while minimizing errors. The Tennessee Lady Volunteers will not make it easy; they bring their own set of skills to Lynchburg which could threaten LIB's ambitions if taken lightly.


For fans looking forward to this encounter, mark your calendars for December 31st at Liberty Arena in Lynchburg where you can support your team live starting at 7:00 PM local time. There may not be any broadcast networks covering this event but being there in person will ensure you don't miss any of the action as these two teams battle it out on court.
