FIVE THINGS TO KNOW
>> North Florida looks to snap a 10-game losing streak to Stetson.
>> Senior Keonna Farmer is just 4 points away from being the Division I single season scoring record holder and she is 13 points away from taking over third in the overall records.
>> The Ospreys are trying for their first win in the ASUN tournament since 2013 when North Florida beat USC Upstate in the Quarterfinals.
>> UNF earned its fifth ASUN win to have its best league record since 2012-2013 when the Ospreys were 7-11. UNF is the No. 6 seed in the tournament for the second time in three years.
>> For the second straight season, North Florida has had a freshman named to the All-Rookie team. Tiffany Tolbert earned the honors after Adrienne Jackson did a year ago.
