  2. Loyola Marymount's offense (104.8 points per 100 possessions, 252nd in Division I) meets a Queens University defense that ranks 348th.
  3. Turnovers forced per 100 possessions: Loyola Marymount 182nd (16.6), Queens University 277th (15.2) of 365.
  4. Strength: Loyola Marymount rank 61st of 365 in shooting allowed (opponent eFG%) (48.9%).
  5. Team matchup: where Loyola Marymount can take advantage. Their shooting efficiency (157th of 365) meets the Queens University shooting defense (327th), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
  6. Star matchup: no key position clearly favors Loyola Marymount. The closest: at forward, Jalen Shelley (Loyola Marymount: 13.7 pts, 6.6 reb, 2.7 ast, Game Score 10.0) is about even with Avantae Parker (Queens University: 10.9 pts, 5.2 reb, 1.2 ast, Game Score 9.5).
