Owls Headed to the Sweet 16!

The men’s basketball team will continue its historic season in the Sweet 16! The Owls advanced after defeating Fairleigh Dickinson University 78-70 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament last night.

Johnell Davis had an incredible night, scoring 29 points with a career-high 12 rebounds, five assists and five steals. He is the first player in NCAA Tournament history to collect more than 25 points, more than 10 rebounds, more than 5 assists, and more than 5 steals since steals became an official stat in 1986.

Next, the Owls will face No. 4 seed Tennessee on Thursday, March 23, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Tip off is scheduled for 9 p.m. Information about watch parties in South Florida and New York will be announced soon.

Congratulations to the men’s basketball team on another exciting win, and good luck in the Sweet 16! Go Owls!
