As the Western Kentucky Lady Toppers prepare for their upcoming encounter with the Purdue Fort Wayne Mastodons at Hertz Arena, fans can anticipate a competitive game of women's basketball. The Lady Toppers have shown resilience and adaptability in their recent performances, which could play a significant role in this match-up.

In their last outing against the Vermont Catamounts, the Lady Toppers secured a 62-50 victory. Their offense was efficient from beyond the arc, hitting 47 percent of three-point attempts. They also demonstrated defensive prowess with six steals and an impressive 18 points off turnovers. However, ball security was an issue as they turned over possession 15 times.
