Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Dominate Belmont Bruins at Murphy Athletic Center in Women's Basketball

From the onset, the Middle Tennessee team set a vigorous pace, outscoring their opponents 22-7 in the first quarter. Their momentum slightly dipped in the second quarter as they added only 11 points to their tally but still managed to keep a lead over Belmont who scored 13 points. However, it was during the third quarter that Middle Tennessee truly demonstrated their dominance by racking up an impressive 27 points compared to Belmont's 21. The final quarter mirrored this intensity with both teams scoring 20 points each.


The Blue Raiders' offensive execution was notable throughout all four quarters of play. Their ability to consistently find and convert scoring opportunities translated into an eighteen-point advantage by game's end. This gap underscored Middle Tennessee's effective play on both ends of the court.


On defense, Middle Tennessee was just as formidable, restricting Belmont’s scoring chances and maintaining pressure that kept them at bay for most of the game. Despite a resilient effort by Belmont in matching Middle Tennessee point-for-point in the final quarter, it wasn't enough to overcome their earlier deficits.


Belmont’s best effort came during their third-quarter surge where they amassed twenty-one points – their highest-scoring period of play – yet this still fell short against Middle Tennessee's relentless attack.


Fans of Middle Tennessee can look forward with anticipation to their next challenge as they are scheduled to face off against Texas Tech Lady Raiders at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas on November 25th at noon local time (2 PM Central Time). While details regarding broadcast networks have not been disclosed yet, supporters will undoubtedly be eager for updates on where they can follow this upcoming encounter live.
