The No.17 ranked Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will travel today for a contest with the Boston College Eagles, in a matchup of teams trending in opposite directions, with the Yellow Jackets winning four of their last five games, while the Eagles have lost four of their last five, sitting at 13-12 this season.
It has not been all good for the Yellow Jackets, as standout freshman Dani Carnegie has been in a scoring slump, scoring a total of 16 points in her last three games combined, making just one of her 29 three-point attempts in those three games.
The Yellow Jackets come into the contest second in the ACC conference in assists per game, averaging 18.3. Ball movement has been key for the Yellow Jackets this season, and junior Tonie Morgan leads the team in assists per game with 5.7 assists per game. That also ranks second in the entire ACC, but just behind her in the conference is Eagles senior guard Kaylah Ivey, who is averaging 5.5 assists per game.
The Yellow Jackets post a +17.4 point differential this season, which puts them as the fourth best in the conference, while the Eagles have a +5.2 point differential this season.
Perhaps the most important stat to look at for the Yellow Jackets is the team's three-point percentage, which sits at 32.7 percent this season. The Yellow Jackets will need to make the most of their three point opportunities in the contest and moving forward this season if they want to remain a top seed for the ACC tournament.
The contest is set to tip off at 2pm Eastern time.
