A-Sun Game of the Week
Thursday, March 1
Belmont at Jacksonville
Swisher Gymnasium
Jacksonville, Fla.
7:00 pm ET
It’s down to the wire for JU, who is tied for second with ETSU in the A-Sun standings. This game could make or break the Dolphins, who are currently on a six-game tear. The Bruins showed their tenacity last week, coming back from a 14-point deficit against Gardner-Webb and clinching its third regular season title.
A-Sun Notables
BRUINS TAKE REGULAR SEASON
In a come-from-behind victory, Belmont clinched its third regular season title
in four years with a 54-51 victory over Gardner-Webb Despite going down by 14
points at the half, the Bruins had the home court advantage and Amber Rockwell's
13 second half points to help them pull out the win. Belmont's home win streak
improved to 23 -- currently the second best in the nation.
JACKSONVILLE ON A ROLL
The Dolphins continue to rack up the wins and re-write the school record books.
Winning 13 of their last 15, Jacksonville tied a program record with six consecutive
wins to tie the previous mark set by the 2000-01 squad. The Dolphins also set
a new program record with four consecutive road wins. With the win over Stetson,
head coach Jill Dunn set a new record for wins by a Dolphin head coach with
33.
DANCIN' IN DOTHAN
