Jacksonville State Gamecocks VS Western Kentucky Hilltoppers

The Lady Toppers have shown a pattern of strong finishes in recent games, often increasing their scoring in the final quarters.

Their most recent home game showcased an impressive performance where they outscored Abilene Christian Wildcats with fast break points contributing significantly to their total score. The Lady Toppers' defense was formidable, recording five blocks and fifteen steals leading them to a victory margin of four points (72-68).


Statistically speaking, Western Kentucky has been consistent from the free-throw line with percentages hovering around seventy percent across these games. They've also maintained field goal percentages in the low forties while showing proficiency beyond the arc at thirty-five percent against Abilene Christian.


The matchup on February 10th will test whether Western Kentucky can continue its trend of late-game surges and solid defense while improving on turnovers which have been high in past performances.
