The month of January brought in American Athletic Conference play for Florida Atlantic University men’s basketball team (9-7, 2-1 AAC).
Their road started out rocky with a devastating home loss to Memphis University (12-3, 2-0). But, they snapped back against East Carolina University (8-7, 1-2 AAC) with a 2-point differential road win.
On Jan. 8, the Owls continued on the road to take on the University of North Carolina at Charlotte 49ers (7-9, 0-3), where they came off with their second AAC win. FAU came out strong with a 5-point lead and the 49ers fought back, but the second half proved to be all the Owls as they dominated from both ends of the court.
