Beginning of the half wasn't too good, but hard to have a solid start when your opponents go 7-7 in 3PT.

HALFTIME. #Charlotte leads #FAU 43-39. Owls playing much better in the later part of the first half to cut the deficit, shooting 43% FG.

Charlotte made their first 7 three-pointers. Since then, they've missed 7 straight. College basketball is a crazy sport.

Live by the three, die by the three!

We are dying by it!

 

15:00 mark of the second half, and FAU is clawing its way back into things after a fast start by Charlotte.

Charlotte STORMS out of halftime to retake a double-digit lead. The 'Niners since go scoreless in 2:30.#FAU's still down, 52-47.

NOW WE'RE ROLLING!

Owls go on an 8-0 to take the lead in front of a stunned Charlotte home crowd.

OWLS LEAD! 57-56, 11:58 2H.#FAU gets their first lead of the game on a 4-point play from Troutman, which lead to a BEAUTIFUL Filer layup.

It's almost like a broken record…once again Troutman is 2-5 from three and has the only two for the team.

The rest are 0-10.

Change that and we would be a MUCH better team.

BUT, since we have the lead that is something to work on for now!

 

Turn on ESPN3 so you can hear these Charlotte fans whine and complain to the refs. It's a quality subplot to the game.

Owls now with their biggest lead of the game! #FAU's up, 64-61 with 8:03 remaining in the contest.

Ingram leads all scorers with 17.

BIG TIME!!

Owls looking for the dagger on the road, as we're up 72-65.

At the last media timeout, #FAU extends the lead to 7!

With 3:50 left, Owls looking for their first back-to-back CUSA road wins in history

One possession game. FAU's out of timeouts, while Charlotte has one left.

47 seconds left, Owls ball with a 77-75 lead. FAU is in the BONUS, while FAU has one more foul to give.
