About the Eagles
Last Time Out
Boston College fell to Louisville on Sunday, 62-52, in a defensive battle in the home finale last Sunday.The Eagles captured an eight-point lead in the third, but was held to eight points themselves in the fourth quarter, leading to the win for the Cardinals. Taina Mair wrapped her week with another solid performance, scoring a game-high 20 points and dished out seven assists. She shot 7-of-16 from the field and grabbed four boards with two steals.
A Win Would
- Give BC a 15-16 record and 5-13 mark in ACC play going into the ACC Tournament.Â
- Snap a six-game skid.Â
- Earn a fourth win in the past five meetings against Wake Forest.Â
What to Watch for
- Watch if Taina Mair continues her stellar play. Over the last two games, the freshman is averaging 23.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 4.0 steals. See if the freshman can continue her solid play.
- Over the last five games, opponents are averaging 18 free throw attempts against WF. Watch if BC can get to the line. The Eagles have hit that mark in 11 of their wins.
- Wake Forest is 1-11 this season when its opponent's offensive rating is 90 or better. See if the Eagles' offense can get on track on Sunday.
- BC held Louisville to just 35 percent shooting from the field and 10 points below its season average. Watch if the defense can force a WF team that is 5-12 when it shoots less than 40 percent from the floor.
- See if BC can come up with second-chance opportunities on Sunday. The Eagles are 9-5 this season when they grab at least 15 offensive rebounds.Â
Scouting Wake Forest (14-14, 5-12 ACC)
- Wake Forest is coming off a narrow 61-60 loss to No. 23 Florida State on Thursday.
- Elise Williams posted 15 points and 12 rebounds.
- Jewel Spear is averaging a team-high 17.6 points per game and is one of two players turning in double figures.
- Elise Williams is second on the team, turning in 10.1 ppg.
- Olivia Summiel is leading the team in rebounding (5.9 rpg).
- Wake Forest is first in the ACC and 16th in the country in 3-point field goal percentage defense, limiting opponents to shooting 26.5 percent from the field.
Series History
The Eagles are 7-13 in the series but have won three of the last four meetings against the Demon Deacons. BC claimed an 82-70 victory last season in Conte Forum.Â
What's Next
