Scoring about 103 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #157 slot in the rankings for offensive efficiency. Abil. Christian allows very few breakaway opportunities for the opposition, which typically translates to fewer turnovers. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 8.38, which ranks #19 in the country. Abil. Christian will also routinely look to penetrate, pound the ball inside, and score from as short a distance as possible. The ball-club is 20th in the NCAA in ratio of near-proximity attempts to total field goal attempts. As far as converting those near-proximity shots goes, the team shoots 57.2% vs. AO, which falls somewhere in the middle of the pack of the rankings in that category. If Abil.

With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 30.06 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #336 in the country in that category. If Abil.
