Probably so. If we look at other examples of impact craters, such as Mercury, the moon, Mars, any of the various rocky moons imaged by various spacecraft, we see round craters. Not many elongated craters. In fact, I don’t recall any examples. Did every meteoroid impact come straight down from vertical?

No, most of them have an incident angle; but they still tend to leave round craters.
