Syracuse Orange to Host Cornell Big Red in Women's Basketball Showdown at JMA Wireless Dome
As the Syracuse Orange prepare to welcome the Cornell Big Red to the JMA Wireless Dome for their upcoming women's basketball game, fans can anticipate a competitive matchup. The Orange have been showcasing a strong performance trend, coming off a series of victories that highlight their offensive prowess and defensive capabilities.
In their recent games, Syracuse has demonstrated an ability to maintain consistent scoring across all quarters. Their latest victory against Ohio Bobcats featured an impressive 82 points with significant contributions from inside the paint, where they scored 40 points. Their shooting accuracy was notable with a two-point field goal percentage of 53 and free throw percentage at 80.
Defensively, Syracuse has been equally formidable. They managed to out-rebound Ohio by a substantial margin, grabbing 51 rebounds compared to Ohio's 33. This rebounding strength was also evident in their game against Northeastern Huskies and Alabama Crimson Tide where they collected 38 and 47 rebounds respectively.
The team has also shown efficiency in converting turnovers into points and maintaining an assist-to-turnover ratio that suggests smart ball handling and distribution – factors that could be pivotal against Cornell.
Playing at home in the JMA Wireless Dome offers another layer of advantage for Syracuse. The familiarity with the venue coupled with fan support often acts as an additional player on court.
As we look ahead to this encounter, it is clear that if Syracuse continues on this trajectory – capitalizing on their scoring efficiency from both field goals and free throws as well as dominating rebounding battles – they will be tough opponents for Cornell Big Red.
