Notables

UTSA was able to get over .500 on the season after defeating FIU 74-63. Keon Lewis had 23 points for the Roadrunners. Against FIU the Roadrunners attempted a season-high 25 three pointers.

UTSA has had an issue this season keeping momentum after a win. The longest winning streak the Roadrunners have on the season is two and in their past eight games they are 4-4 as they have been going back and forth in the win-loss column.

The Roadrunners are 6-4 on the road this season with three of their road wins coming during conference play.


FAU at a Glance

Offense - 63.0 PPG, 41.3% FG, 35.0% 3PT

Defense - 64.6 PGA, 44.5% FGA, 26.8% 3PTA

Rebounding - 32.1 PG Team, 35.4 PG Opponents


Notables

FAU is on a four-game losing streak after falling at home to UTEP 63-56. The Owls' four-game losing streak is the second one they have had to endure since conference play. Raffington had a team-high 20 points and 10 rebounds against the Miners.

With nine games left in the season the Owls are going to have to start making headway in conference play. If the season ended today FAU would be ineligible to play in the Conference USA Tournament.

FAU is 6-3 at The Burrow this year but only one of those wins have occurred during conference play.

Poole makes the first shot of the game and makes it. He then takes another but rattles in and out.
