The Eagles are +10.5 on the glass in their six wins and -5.5 in their six losses. 3) FGCU has the best 3-point percentage defense in the nation, holding opponents to just .237. The Eagles finished 5th in that category last year (24.6 percent). 4) The Eagles have three players shooting better than 50 percent from the floor: Demetris Morant (56.5), Rayjon Tucker (54.3) and Marc-Eddy Norelia (50.7). 5) FGCU held Louisiana Tech to a season-low 66 points, but dropped its second-consecutive regular-season home game for the first time since 2011-12.
