FAU is looking to snap its four-game losing streak in a road bout with rival FIU tomorrow.

But winning in Miami hasn’t been the Owls’ strong point in recent years. FAU has won at FIU only once over the past six seasons.

A possible advantage for the Owls on Saturday could be their free-throw shooting. FAU hasn’t been very dependable from the charity stripe in previous seasons, but that has changed under first-year coach Dusty May.

The Owls are fourth in Conference USA in free-throw percentage, while FIU is second to last at only 63 percent.
