FGCU has shot 57 percent or better from the field for fourstraight games for the first time in program history (previous record: three in a row during 2011-12). The Eagles have averaged 61.6 percent (141-229) from the floor during that stretch. FGCU enters the contest ranked 5th in the nation with a field goal percentage of 52.4 on the year.
86%
The program single-season record for field goal percentage was set last year (47.9), and the 2nd-highest single-season performance came in 2013-14 (46.7). Much of FGCU’s production during its winning streak – and in particular the last four games – has come in the paint. The Eagles have produced an astonishing 216 points in the paint (54 per game) over the past four contests, including 19 total dunks (4.75 per game).

1) FGCU has won six-consecutive non-conference games for the first time in the program’s Division-I history. 2) The Eagles will be looking to push their all-time D-I record (152-151) two games over .500 for the first time in program history. 3) FGCU will be in search of its 12th-straight home win dating back to last year, which would be tied for the 14th-longest active streak in the nation. 4) Over the last four games, FGCU has trailed for a total of exactly 2 minutes (0:00 vs. Ave Maria; 0:41 at Georgia Southern; 1:19 vs. Siena; 0:00 vs. FIU). 5) A win would be the third different seven-game winning streak under Joe Dooley, and would tie the Eagles for the 11th-longest active winning streak in the country.
