Memphis Tigers Set to Tame Tulane Green Wave at Elma Roane Fieldhouse
As the Memphis Tigers prepare to host the Tulane Green Wave at the Elma Roane Fieldhouse, fans are buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be an electrifying encounter. The upcoming game, scheduled for February 10th, is a chance for the Tigers to assert their dominance on their home court.
The Memphis Tigers have had a rollercoaster season so far. Their last performance against Mississippi State Bulldogs on December 17th was not up to par, as they fell short with a score of 63 points against the Bulldogs' 81. Despite this setback, there were positive takeaways from that game – notably their ability to generate steals and assists. The team managed seven steals and dished out 16 assists, showing glimpses of strong defensive play and teamwork.
However, it's clear that shooting accuracy was a concern in that match-up; with only a 29 percent success rate from field goals and free throws made at just half of their attempts. This is an area where MEM must improve if they want to secure victory over TULN.
On December 10th against Southern Miss Lady Eagles, MEM showed more promise with a narrow win scoring 69 points over USM's 67. Their three-point shooting was particularly impressive at a solid rate of 38 percent made shots from beyond the arc. This kind of sharpshooting will be crucial in overcoming TULN's defense.
In contrast, TULN comes into this game after facing off against Columbia Lions where they showcased resilience despite falling short by ten points in New York City's Francis S. Levien Gymnasium on December 7th. They demonstrated balanced scoring across quarters but struggled defensively allowing Columbia Lions to put up significant numbers in paint scoring.
MEM fans should look forward to seeing whether their team can capitalize on TULN’s defensive gaps while shoring up their own vulnerabilities shown in past performances – particularly by enhancing field goal percentages and maintaining strong perimeter defense.
The upcoming clash between these two teams will undoubtedly hinge on whether MEM can leverage its home advantage and rally behind its supporters' energy inside Elma Roane Fieldhouse – turning it into a fortress where opposing teams struggle to succeed.
Mark your calendars for February 10th when the Memphis Tigers aim for redemption starting at precisely eight o'clock in the evening local time (8:00 PM). Fans eager not just witness but feel every dribble and dunk can do so by securing seats within Elma Roane Fieldhouse or tuning into live coverage available through official sports networks.
