"Devin Harris is the most important player in our league," JU head coach Tony Jasick said after the game. "I didn’t say he was the best player. He’s the most important.”

With the win the Dolphins swept the Ospreys for the first time in five years.

UNF led 41-34 at half and increased their lead to double digits in the second half before the Dolphins rallied to take a 66-64 lead. It was the second time the Ospreys blew a double digit second half lead against JU this year.

Jace Hogan led the Dolphins with 26 points while Garrett Sams led the Ospreys with 19.
