JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – The North Florida basketball team plays its final regular season games outside of Jacksonville beginning Saturday at 4 p.m. against East Tennessee State at the MSHA Athletic Center.
The Ospreys (13-13, 7-6 A-Sun) have won their last two outings and four of their last five. ETSU (12-11, 6-6) saw a two game win streak snapped with a 54-46 loss at Mercer on Monday.
Saturday's game marks the 14th all-time meeting between UNF and ETSU on the hardwood. The Bucs hold a 12-1 lead in the series including a perfect 6-0 mark at home. The Ospreys lone victory came in last year's A-Sun Tournament semifinals. Three of the last four meetings have been decided by five points or less including ETSU's 64-63 win earlier this season at UNF Arena.
Parker Smith, UNF's leading scorer at 13.2 points per game, earned A-Sun Player of the Week honors on Tuesday after averaging 22 ppg last week and connecting on 11 three-pointers in two games. Smith is joined in double-digit scoring by Travis Wallace (11.0 ppg) and Jerron Granberry (10.9 ppg). Wallace is also the team's top rebounder at 5.2 boards a contest.
Fans can catch all the exciting action live on the radio on WBOB 600 AM, The Flagship Station of the UNF Sports Network, as well as online via the radio network link at www.wbobradio.com. Real-time live stats are available on the official athletic department website of ETSU (www.etsubucs.com). In addition, the game will be available through A-Sun TV, a subscription based webcast hosted by the Atlantic Sun Conference on their website www.atlanticsun.org and www.asun.tv.
Following the game against ETSU, North Florida closes its road trip Monday in Spartanburg, S.C., against USC Upstate.
