ANALYSIS:
Regardless of what the win percentage says, Howard isn't a very good team this year. Their record this season is 22-13, and the club is ranked 228th overall (out of 363) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. Of the eight schools in the MEAC (average ranking 290.6), they're currently ranked as our #2 team in the conference.

Defensively, Howard finds itself in the lower half of our ratings. The team is ranked 244th in defensive efficiency, giving up more than 105 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Howard can be weak on rebounding, giving the opposition too many chances to score off of the offensive glass. The club has a rating of 16.24 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (324th nationally).

Howard doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 100 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #220 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Howard has some difficulties converting mid-range shot attempts. The team is ranked 289th in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 35.6% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO.

Howard has been playing much better basketball as of late and is presently ranked fifth in positive momentum because of it.
