PROTECT THE RIM
UNF is holding teams to 42.6 percent shooting from the floor this year, the third-best mark by a UNF defense in the program's single season history ... additionally, UNF has blocked 4.6 shots per game, third-best in UNF single season history.

DRISCOLL CONFIDENTIAL
"And just like that, there is one game left on the schedule with a lot of implications heading into the ASUN postseason tournament. We were in this situation last year with this group as well, so there is some familiarity with this scenario and the potential seeding outcomes. At the end of the day, you have to control what you can control, which is giving yourself the opportunity to be the best version of yourself. That's the mindset of going 1-0!" -- Head Coach Matthew Driscoll
