Mercer owns a 10-4 edge in the all-time series, but the two sides are 3-3 against each other in the last two years. FGCU has never won a regular-season game at Mercer (0-6), and with the Bears leaving the A-Sun this could be FGCU’s final opportunity.
3&3
The two teams have emerged as premier clubs in the ASun the past few years. Dating back to the start of last season, Mercer has won 20 conference games, FGCU has claimed 19 and no other league member has more than 14.

Mercer is 40-4 at home since the start of the 2011-12 season, including a 35-2 mark in regular-season play in that same stretch. The two other losses have both come at the hands of FGCU as the Eagles defeated the Bears in the A-Sun semifinals in 2012 and claimed the A-Sun title with an 88-75 triumph in the championship final last year.
