Murphy Athletic Center to Host Clash Between Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders and New Mexico State Aggies

As the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders prepare to host the New Mexico State Aggies at the Murphy Athletic Center, fans are buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be an electrifying Women's Basketball game. The upcoming matchup, scheduled for January 20th, is set against a backdrop of impressive performances by the Blue Raiders in their recent games.


Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders VS New Mexico State Aggies

The Middle Tennessee team has been on a formidable streak, showcasing their dominance on home turf. In their last game on December 21st against Northern Kentucky Norse, they secured an overwhelming victory with a score of 83-42. Their offensive prowess was evident as they shot 43 percent from the field and an exceptional 93 percent from the free-throw line. Defensively, they were just as imposing with five blocks and eight steals contributing to a staggering 35 points off turnovers.


Earlier that month on December 17th against Stephen F. Austin Ladyjacks, MTU continued their winning ways with a solid performance that ended in a scoreline of 72-47 in favor of the home team. The defensive effort was highlighted by seven blocks and fifteen steals which translated into an impressive total of twenty-eight points off turnovers.


In another away game on December 10th versus Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles, MTU emerged victorious once again with a score of 63-47. They maintained consistency in shooting at around forty-two percent from both field goals and two-point range while capitalizing on free throws at nearly seventy-four percent accuracy.


The New Mexico State Aggies will have to contend with MTU's robust defense which has been instrumental in their recent victories. The Blue Raiders' ability to convert turnovers into points and maintain high shooting percentages has been key to their success this season.
