Wyoming Cowgirls looking to get offense on track vs. North Dakota State

LARAMIE -- If defense wins championships, the Wyoming women’s basketball team should still be in good shape to make a run in the Mountain West.

But right now the Cowgirls (3-4) are trying to figure out how to shoot straight.

UW ranked 252nd in the NCAA in scoring (60.7 points per game) and 192nd in field-goal percentage (40.2%) entering Saturday’s games.

Head coach Gerald Mattinson has been pleased with the other end of the floor, where the Cowgirls are holding opponents to 55.6 points (54th) and 38.4% shooting (148th).
