Five schools, 10 teams, 22 games — last week was the busiest college basketball week of the season for First Coast teams, with the University of North Florida and Jacksonville University men’s teams playing their fourth games in eight days on Saturday and the women’s teams playing their third in five days. 

Jacksonville University went 2-1 on the week but the two were big — keeping the Dolphins’ home winning streak intact. Victories of 62-46 over Jacksonville State on Monday and 51-44 over Lipscomb on Saturday extended JU’s streak at Swisher Gym to 21 games. Senior guard Kevion Nolan also passed 1,000 career points.

The University of North Florida won a huge game on Thursday, beating Kennesaw 89-86 on Jose Placer’s 3-pointer with 1.7 seconds left. He also made one with 27 seconds left to put the Ospreys up by two points before KSU tied it. However, UNF’s offense struggled in a 68-62 loss to Stetson on Monday and a 82-57 loss to Florida Gulf Coast on Saturday. The Ospreys made 25.5 percent of their 3-point attempts (12 of 47) in those two games.

The conference season will settle down a bit into a routine until tournament time. For example, the men’s and women’s teams for JU and UNF will play largely a Thursday-Saturday ASUN schedule for the rest of the season and Flagler’s teams will be Wednesday-Saturday.
