BOCA RATON, Fla. - Winners of four of its last five, the Florida Atlantic University softball team will travel to Denton, Texas for a three-game set against the North Texas Mean Green. The series will go a long way towards determining seeding for the upcoming Conference USA tournament. The Owls (29-16, 9-6 C-USA) are currently in fourth place, meaning they would receive the final bye to the tournament semifinals. The Mean Green (22-21, 9-9) are in fifth place and can overtake FAU with a series sweep.
Last Week: The Owls swept a doubleheader over Florida Gulf Coast in Fort Myers on Wednesday night, then won both games of Friday's double dip against Middle Tennessee before losing the series finale on Saturday.
History: North Texas has won 15 of the 27 all-time meetings with the Owls. The two teams haven't met in the regular season since 2013. The last encounter came in the quarterfinals of the 2015 C-USA Tournament, a 5-0 FAU victory.
Coverage: Links to live stats and live video will be available at FAUsports.com. Saturday's double dip will start at 2 p.m. Eastern, with Sunday's finale slated for a 1 p.m. Eastern first pitch.
Upcoming: The Owls host UTSA in the final home games of the regular season on April 29 and 30. FAU's seniors will be recognized prior to Saturday's doubleheader and Sunday's final will air on beIN Sports Connect.
