CLUBHOUSE CHATTER
"Not the round we were looking for to end the fall. All in all the entire fall was a disappointment. We will finish the fall ranked about 50th, but this group is capable of much more. It is time to get way for awhile and refocus for the spring."
Head Coach Scott Schroeder

UP NEXT
North Florida will be off from competition until the spring season which begins for the Ospreys with the Sea Best Invitational on Jan. 31-Feb. 1, 2022, at TPC Sawgrass.
