SAVANNAH, Ga. -- The North Florida basketball team embarks on a stretch playing five of its next six games on the road beginning Tuesday night with a rematch against Savannah State at Tiger Arena.
The Ospreys (3-3) topped the Tigers (2-6), 66-63, just over a week ago at UNF Arena. North Florida is also coming off a program Division I record setting 109-point output on Thursday night against Webber International. Savannah State has lost its last four games including the loss at UNF.

In the first meeting this season, sophomore Beau Beech scored a career high 19 points including a 12-for-13 performance from the free throw line to lead the Ospreys. Travis Wallace chipped in 12 points for UNF. For the game, North Florida converted 32 of 39 from the charity stripe.
Deven Williams led the way for the Tigers finishing with 16 points, while Jyles Smith narrowly missed a double-double with 14 points and nine rebounds.
