Ospreys Eliminated from ASUN Championship Contention
FORT MYERS, Fla. - North Florida women's basketball (9-20, 3-12) couldn't keep up with the offensive output that Florida Gulf Coast (25-4, 15-0) produced in its 75-33 road defeat on Thursday evening.
The Ospreys stayed within a couple possessions through the first period, but the deficit grew too large to overcome against FGCU. UNF had seven points each from starters Kaila Rougier and Emma Broermann, as well as another seven from Agnes Svansdottir off the bench.
North Florida | 9-19, 3-11 ASUN
Florida Gulf Coast | 25-4, 15-0 ASUN
First Half: Broermann put the Ospreys in a good position to start with back-to-back layups in the first few minutes to go up two...Rougier made the first three for UNF just before the media timeout to pull back within a point...another pair of scores were made from Rougier, followed with a layup from Alexa Washington heading into the second period down, 19-13...Svansdottir hit a three from the top of the arc, along with a Jayla Adams' jumper to get the deficit back to six...Taub and Broermann both made layups later on, but FGCU went on a run to go into the break down 18 points.
Second Half: Broermann went 1-for-2 from the charity stripe in the third period to continue adding points for UNF...Lyric Swann and Washington earned tough layups in the paint on back-to-back possessions...Svansdottir went on to score a layup and two free throws, but those were the only points of the fourth quarter, as the Ospreys dropped its penultimate game of the regular season to the Eagles.
