Offensively, they were efficient from beyond the arc, hitting 10 three-pointers at an impressive rate of 36 percent. Their ability to convert from long range could be pivotal against Rice.
The team's resilience was also on display during their semifinal match-up against Little Rock Trojans on December 20. Despite being tied five times and experiencing five lead changes throughout the game, Tulane secured another win with a score of 66-57. Their shooting accuracy was notable as they made nearly half of their field goal attempts (49 percent) and were particularly effective from the free-throw line where they shot an excellent 73 percent.

The team's rebounding prowess was evident as they outrebounded Howard by seven boards while also maintaining discipline by committing fewer personal fouls.

With solid shooting percentages both from two-point range (around 51 percent in recent games) and three-point territory (averaging around 36 percent), coupled with robust defense leading to points off turnovers, TULN has all it takes to dominate proceedings once more.
