Series History vs. FAU
The North Dakota and Florida Atlantic men's basketball programs have never crossed paths in their histories. This will be the first-ever meeting between the Hawks and the Owls.
Last Time Out
North Dakota held off Troy in a 74-72 thriller in game one of the Paradise Classic. The Hawks led by as many as 14, but it took going 4-for-4 at the charity stripe in the final minute to hold off a Trojan comeback.
Mitchell Sueker led the Hawks with 25 points, followed by
Matt Norman pouring in 13 and
Caleb Nero adding 12.
Something About the 70's
70 seems to be the magic number for the Fighting Hawks early in the season, with UND winning their last two contests by an average of 2.0 points when scoring 70. North Dakota overcame a 14-point deficit on Monday to upend Montana 79-77 in the final seconds inside the Betty Engelstad Sioux Center. The script was almost flipped on Friday, with Troy nearly overcoming a 14-point deficit, but the Hawks held on for the 74-72 win in game one of the Paradise Classic.
