Wright State’s scoring faces a road test

The Raiders are 3-0, averaging 91.7 points while shooting 55% from the field and 41% from three. Dominic Pangonis leads them at 16.0 points per game, and Andrea Holden averages 9.0 rebounds. That combination gives Wright State several ways to sustain its offense if outside shots stop falling.

Wright State opened with home wins over Air Force, 102-71, and Florida Atlantic, 97-71, before winning 76-68 at Toledo. The narrower margin at Toledo matters: the Raiders showed they could win away from home without matching their earlier scoring output. They also held the Rockets below the points allowed in either home victory. The three results suggest Wright State can handle a less free-flowing game, though the Toledo trip was its only road test among those completed games. Another opponent capable of scoring should challenge that adaptability.

Samford’s efficient offense seeks a response

Samford is 1-1 and averages 83.0 points on 53% shooting from the field, but its 29% three-point mark trails Wright State’s 41%. Will Shaver leads the Bulldogs with 15.5 points and 8.0 rebounds per game. Their 9.5 total turnovers per game could help them protect scoring opportunities.

The Bulldogs beat Berry 87-58 at Pete Hanna Center, then lost 88-79 at UNLV. Those contrasting results make their defense worth watching: Samford kept Berry to 58 points but surrendered 88 in its road defeat. The UNLV game also showed the Bulldogs could score while trailing a stronger opposing output, rather than relying entirely on a low-scoring contest. Returning to the site of their opening win gives them a chance to answer that loss, but their completed games offer limited evidence of how they will fare against another productive offense.
