NOTABLE:

  • The Jaguars have the overall advantage over the Ospreys, tallying a 10-5 record all-time.
  • Jade Marie has won four of her last six at No. 5 in the singles draw.

QUOTABLE:
Jaco Keyser, Head Coach:
  • "Credit to North Florida for showing us today why they are the only undefeated team left in the nation. They were too tough for us. We had a small window of opportunity at the end of the first set in singles, but they shut it fairly quickly. No doubt a tough stretch for the team, but if we hold a steady hand and do not panic, then we will eventually come out on the other side."

UP NEXT:
The Jaguars will face FGCU on the road at 9 a.m. CDT on Sunday at the FGCU Tennis Complex in Fort Myers, Fla.
