The Orange (6-4 overall, 0-1 ACC) return to the Dome for an ACC women's basketball matchup with Clemson Tigers (4-3) on Saturday, Dec. 11. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. on ACCN.
'Cuse enters Saturday's game with a four-game win streak on the line. The Orange look to go for their fifth-straight, something the Orange have not done since the 2019-20 season. In Syracuse's last time out, a 85-55 win over Cornell, all five starters scored in double figures. Naje Murray was the leading scorer with 18 points and fellow graduate student Alaysia Styles led Syracuse in rebounds with 9 and was second in scoring with 16 points.
Saturday's game is the Tigers' first ACC game of the season. They are coming off a 48-42 win against Presbyterian on Dec. 5. Delicia Washington leads the team in scoring with 14.1 points per game while also leading the team in rebounds with 56 total. Clemson averages 66.3 points per game and the Tigers are shooting 35.2 percent from the field.
Following the Clemson matchup, 'Cuse will be back in the Dome for a non-conference game on Saturday, Dec. 18 at 11 a.m. when UMBC comes to town. Tickets are on sale at cuse.com/tickets.
