**Michigan Wolverines Prepare for Virginia Tech Clash at Fort Myers Tip-Off**

The Michigan Wolverines are set to continue their promising start to the season at the Fort Myers Tip-Off in Florida. With four wins out of five games, including a recent triumph over Tarleton State, the team's early performances have shown a propensity for both long-distance shooting and turnovers.

The Wolverines have struggled with ball security, averaging 16.4 turnovers per game, ranking them 19th-worst nationwide. Their opponents on Monday, Virginia Tech, are slightly better in this regard, averaging 15.2 turnovers per game, placing them 45th in the nation.

On the offensive end, Michigan is more proficient from beyond the arc. They attempt 25.2 three-pointers per game, making 38.9% of them, which ranks them 44th nationwide. In contrast, Virginia Tech is hitting only 31.6% of their three-point attempts and is positioned 246th nationally while attempting 22.8 shots per game from three-point range.

Regardless of Monday's outcome, Michigan will be back on the court on Wednesday to face either South Carolina or Xavier in the finale of the Fort Myers Tip-Off. The early part of Michigan's season has certainly showcased their strengths and areas for improvement, providing plenty of excitement for the fans.
