LAST TIME VS. JACKSONVILLE (1.17.21)
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - For the first time since 2011, North Florida women's basketball sweeps Jacksonville as the Ospreys picked up a 67-56 victory behind four double figure scorers on Sunday afternoon at UNF Arena.
SCOUTING THE OPPONENT
Jacksonville is 8-5 and 1-1 in ASUN play ... the Dolphins are coached by fourth year head coach Darnell Haney ... the Dolphins have recovered after going 4-17 and 1-13 in ASUN play last year ... DeShari Graham paced the Dolphins with 17 points in a 12-point victory against the Hatters Jan. 12 ... Shynia Jackson and Taylor Hawks posted 16-points apiece in the win ... JU earned an upset 69-66 win at Minnesota in the season opener Nov. 9 ... JU fell by 19 to FGCU to open its ASUN slate ... JU likes to get its hands in the passing lanes ... the Dolphins have swiped 12.2 passes per game, the 18th most in the nation.
FROM THE JUMP
>> UNF is 7-8 and 0-3 in the ASUN.
>> North Florida and Jacksonville are meeting for the third consecutive time at the UNF Arena.
>> The Ospreys started off ASUN play with a tough slate, going to (RV) FGCU and Liberty while hosting Stetson.
AN OSPREY WIN WOULD...
-Give UNF its first ASUN win this season.
-Give UNF its fourth consecutive win against JU
-Bring UNF back to .500 on the year.
ANY WAY POSSIBLE
UNF has had a number of different starting lineups throughout the season to accommodate available players. UNF has had six different starting lineups. Summah Evans made her first start in ASUN play at Liberty, while Kaila Rougier made her first start as an Osprey at FGCU.
LAST TIME OUT
LYNCHBURG, Va. - Basketball is a momentum game, and Wednesday night that shone through as North Florida and Liberty traded scoring runs and large leads, but the host Flames (15-1, 3-0 ASUN) got the last push in UNF's 61-50 road loss Wednesday, Jan. 12.
AT THE BREAK
UNF is 7-1 when leading at the break and 0-7 when trailing. The Ospreys lost when leading at the break for the first time all year against Liberty.
