Despite facing a formidable opponent in the hot Elon team, William & Mary holds a commendable undefeated record of 5-0 at home. The Phoenix may struggle to keep up with the Tribe's fast pace of play, particularly given their tendency to allow a high shooting percentage from beyond the arc on the road. Conversely, William & Mary boasts an impressive 39.1% three-point shooting percentage at home. This disparity in shooting percentages may prove advantageous for the Tribe in securing another victory on their home court against Elon.
