Elma Roane Fieldhouse to Witness Clash Between Memphis Tigers and Alabama State Lady Hornets
As the Memphis Tigers prepare to welcome the Alabama State Lady Hornets to the Elma Roane Fieldhouse, fans are eager for an intense matchup. The Tigers have been working hard to refine their game, and this upcoming contest is a prime opportunity for them to showcase their progress.
In their last outing against the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, the Memphis Tigers faced challenges that they'll be looking to overcome in their next game. Scoring only 47 points compared to the Blue Raiders' 67, it was clear that offensive efficiency was an issue; with a field goal percentage of just 27 and three-point shooting at a mere 18 percent, finding consistency in scoring will be crucial. The team also struggled with turnovers, giving up possession 20 times which led directly to 25 points for the opposition.
However, it wasn't all negative for Memphis. They demonstrated tenacity on defense with eight steals and showed promise on rebounds by securing a total of 45 – evenly split between offense and defense. This rebounding effort suggests that if they can convert more effectively on second-chance points while maintaining defensive pressure without fouling (as indicated by their high personal foul count), they could control the pace against Alabama State.
The venue itself might play into Memphis's hands; playing at home in Elma Roane Fieldhouse provides a familiar environment which could help them find rhythm early on. With home-court advantage often being a factor in collegiate sports, this could provide an edge over visiting teams.
Fans should expect an energized Memphis team ready to address past shortcomings as they take on Alabama State Lady Hornets. The focus will likely be on improving shot selection and reducing turnovers while continuing aggressive rebounding efforts.
The game is scheduled for November 10th at Elma Roane Fieldhouse in Memphis, TN. Fans can catch all the action live as both teams vie for victory in what promises to be an engaging encounter between two determined squads.
