Heading into the MAC, I spent a few minutes looking over the stats from the "pre-season" games and found some interesting things. Granted, the competition was not always that strong, so take these for what they are worth:
- Team as a whole shot 44% from the field. That's on pace for the highest FG% since 2001-02
- 10 of the 12 players who have seen the floor are shooting over 40%, led by McIntyre's 63%.
- Team is shooting 36.7% from beyond the arc, which is on pace for the highest team percentage since 1998-99. Jay-Ann leads at 44.1%.
- Boyd and Santucci both averaging 5.1 assists per game. Many seasons UT has not had 1 player averaging more than 5 assists per game
- Team has an assist-to-TO ration of 1.2, which is higher than any season I have records for
- 9 players have an assist-to-TO ration of 1 or greater, lead by Halee Printz at 2.2. Boyd and Santucci are at 1.8 and 1.5 respectively.
- Boyd and Santucci both averaging more than 2 steals per game.
And here's my favorite stat:
- No player is averaging more than 30 minutes per game. Santucci leads at 29.6
On the negative side, free throw shooting is most troubling. 61.2% is the lower than any season I have records for. Harris and Capotosto both shot FTs very well, so them leaving hurt the team percentage a lot, but interestingly enough, Boyd, Reecher and McIntyre's percentages are all up from last year (although not by leaps and bounds). However, there are still 4 players shooting under 50%.
Looking forward to the MAC season. Exciting team to watch.
