Decent start so far, but the Owls can't let these two straight turnovers get to them.

We're UNDERWAY from Court B of the Ford Center.

Owls and Blazers are trading early buckets, but #FAU has had two straight turnovers. Need to restrict wasteful possessions.

Welp, they let those turnovers get to them. The Blazers with all momentum so far.

Not the start Owl Nation was looking for. #FAU has gone cold, not scoring in over 2 minutes.

It's been all Justin Massey so far, although Jailyn Ingram had one of the smoothest spins I have seen on his way to a layup.

Owls are starting to get comfortable in Frisco. #FAU has pulled within 2 after a slow #FAU start. Massey leads all players with 7 points.

It's worth noting that Ingram had one of this best games of his young career. Expect for the Owls to rely on him heavily next year, no matter who the head coach is.
