Cassell Coliseum Showdown: Virginia Tech Hokies to Face Notre Dame Fighting Irish

As the Virginia Tech Hokies prepare to welcome the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to Cassell Coliseum, fans can anticipate a thrilling encounter in Women's Basketball. The Hokies have been showcasing a strong performance trend, as evidenced by their recent games.

In their last game against UNC Asheville Bulldogs, the Hokies dominated with an impressive 86 points victory while keeping their opponents at just 48 points. Their offensive prowess was on full display with a field goal percentage of 50 and three-point shooting at 39 percent. Moreover, they excelled in ball distribution with 20 assists and maintained a solid defense with eight steals.

The previous away game against Boston College Eagles also ended in favor of the Hokies, where they scored 73 points and held the Eagles to 58. They continued their efficient scoring streak with over half of their field goals finding the net (52 percent from two-point range and an exceptional three-point percentage at 50).

Even though they faced a tighter contest against Tennessee Lady Volunteers, emerging victorious by only three points (59-56), it's clear that Virginia Tech has been able to maintain composure under pressure. Despite shooting less effectively overall in that matchup (35 percent from the field), they capitalized on turnovers scoring 20 points off them.

Cassell Coliseum has proven to be a fortress for Virginia Tech; its atmosphere could play an influential role once again as they aim for another win on home turf. With consistent scoring efficiency and robust defensive efforts recently displayed by the team, fans should expect nothing less than another competitive performance.

The upcoming game is scheduled for December 18th at Cassell Coliseum in Blacksburg, VA. Tip-off is set for 21:00 local time and fans can catch all the action live on ACC Network channel number 612.
