ATAGLANCE
Coming off a win in its home opener, FGCU will now look for its first road win of the 2010-11 campaign when it heads to Louisiana for its first-ever meeting with Grambling Saturday evening. The game is part of the Razorback Showcase put together by Arkansas University and is the first of two games on a four-day road swing for the Eagles. Grambling sits at 0-3 on the year after beginning with three straight road contests. The game will mark FGCU's second game of the season against an opponent in their home opener.
WE'VEGOTAFIRSTTIMERHERE
Saturday's game will mark the first time FGCU and Grambling have squared-off. The Eagles' first four games of the season come against teams they've never faced until they host Miami on Nov. 27. In all, the 2010-11 FGCU schedule features seven teams its never faced.

Now in its fourth year of Division I status, the FGCU athletic department's 14 sports will all be eligible for postseason play in 2011-12. FGCU is finishing up its four-year Division I re-classifying period in which it could fast track just one men's sport and one women's sport. Baseball and Women's Volleyball were eligible to compete in postseason play last year. The A-Sun Tournament is included in postseason play for men's basketball.
