Alijah Martin scored a team-high 17 points to get FAU its first win of the season.
The FAU men’s basketball squad (1-1) hosted Warner University (3-2) in the Burrow at Abessinio Court Saturday afternoon. After a slow start, the Owls coasted to a 78-56 victory over the Royals.
Both teams were sluggish halfway into the first half, combining for a 7-30 from the field. Despite missing three of its first 15 shots, FAU had the 12-8 lead.
“Our message was to just play the right way and the shots will eventually fall,” head coach Dusty May said.
