Head Coach
Dave Rollins - "It always is great to defend the nest and get a win for FGCU. Especially against great competition. Miami being in the ACC and Tampa as one of the best D2 schools in the country provides great opportunities for us and those showed. We now have a great training block ahead of us to carry this momentum into November. Wings Up!"

The Eagles have a month off from competition before heading to Houston, Texas from Nov. 19-21 to take part in the Phill Hansel Invitational.
