Can the Wyoming Cowgirls Tame the Rams at Moby Arena?
As the Wyoming Cowgirls prepare to face off against the Colorado State Rams at Moby Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can carry forward their momentum and secure another victory. The upcoming game, scheduled for February 17th, is set to be a riveting encounter in Fort Collins.
The Cowgirls have had a mixed bag of performances recently. On December 22nd, they faced a tough loss against Eastern Washington Eagles with a score of 43-62. The statistics from that game showed some areas of concern; notably, the Cowgirls struggled from beyond the arc with only 13 percent three-point shooting and turned over the ball an alarming 20 times. However, they did manage to maintain a solid two-point field goal percentage at 50 percent and were aggressive in securing points in the paint with 30.
In stark contrast was their performance on December 21st against Wright State Raiders where they emerged victorious with an impressive scoreline of 71-61. That day WYO showcased what they are capable of when firing on all cylinders: sinking two-pointers at an exceptional rate of 63 percent and dominating rebounds with a total count of 45. Their assist-to-turnover ratio was also positive at just over one.
However, it's worth noting that consistency has been an issue for WYO as evidenced by their game on December 17th against Montana State Bobcats where they lost by nine points (55-64). Despite showing tenacity with steals and blocks (10 and six respectively), turnovers continued to plague them as did foul trouble which led them to concede free throws.
Looking ahead to their clash with CSU, it's clear that rebounding will be crucial for WYO – something they excelled in during their win over WRST but struggled with versus EWU and MTST. Additionally, minimizing turnovers will be key; this has been a persistent issue across past games which could prove detrimental if not addressed.
The Rams will undoubtedly pose challenges; however, if WYO can leverage its strengths – particularly its ability to score inside – there is every chance for success. Fans should look out for improved ball security and execution from beyond the arc which could tip scales in favor of WYO.
With anticipation building up among fans who wish to support their team live or through broadcasts, mark your calendars: February 17th at Moby Arena is when all action unfolds starting at precisely half-past seven in the evening local time. This showdown promises excitement as both teams vie for supremacy on court – catch it live or tune into broadcasts available through local sports networks.
