We are finally at the last buy game of the 2025-26 season, which means that after this, every game will be against a high major opponent. The Deacs have done a really good job this season running the score up in these games, so I expect that tonight will be no different. The Lancers are one of the worst shooting teams in the nation, hitting on just 27.6% of their 3-point attempts (339th) and 50% of their shots from inside the arc (225th), but they get to the free throw line a lot. Longwood is currently 4th in the nation in free throws made per game, making an average of 21 free throws on 28 attempts per game. If the Deacs can stay out of foul trouble and avoid sending Longwood to the line, they should win this game very easily.
Go Deacs!
