MT comes in with a 2 game winning streak, FAU on a 3 game losing streak. FAU losing streak began with a home loss to Charlotte followed by 2 road losses. Last time MT played Charlotte was a 63-48 victory at home 01/26. This game showed the Raiders with some offensive difficulties that we as fans were getting concerned about, 3 of 4 quarters had low outputs of 2 quarters with only 7 points & 1 with 11. Despite FAU's recent losing streak they are very athletic & proved to be very competitive in Murfreesboro. The Raiders need to come out strong on both sides of the ball & maintain consistency throughout the whole game to start this road trip.
As pointed out in an earlier discussion, the ladies have developed a bad habit of passing the ball around the perimeter without effectively pushing the ball to the post. This is turning into one of our major flaws to become an elite team. Coaching staff must address this issue. As the season winds down Thursday will be a great opportunity to start getting our posts more involved before heading into tournament play.
