'Cat Facts
UNH has a 1-1 overall record with a breakdown of 1-0 at home and 0-1 on the road.
The Wildcats are coming off last Tuesday's 78-60 loss at the University of Texas. UNH held its own on the glass with the Longhorns recording a slight 40-36 rebounding advantage; the 'Cats held a 9-8 edge in offensive rebounds and scored more second-chance points (7-6). UNH also outscored Texas at the foul line (14-13).
New Hampshire is racking up the frequent flier miles during the PK80 presented by State Farm. UNH flew 3,455 miles round trip to Austin and will fly 2,506 miles round trip to Gainesville. In the pair of three-day road trips spanning a total of eight days, that's a total of 5,961 miles for the PK80 Regional Site games. And add in two bus trips from Durham to Boston and that's 280 more driving miles.
Senior forward and captain Tanner Leissner has been UNH's top scorer both games with 22 points vs. Wheelock College and 14 at Texas.
Senior forward and captain Iba Camara recorded his 17th career double-double – most among active Wildcats – with 12 points and team-high 10 rebounds at Texas.
UNH vs. Florida
New Hampshire has lost all three lifetime meetings against Florida. These teams played three consecutive years at the turn of the century when Granite State native Matt Bonner was playing for the Gators.
UNH made the trip to Gainesville in November 1999 (131-72 loss) and December 2000 (102-54 loss), and Florida traveled to play in UNH's Whittemore Center in November 2001 (108-56 loss).
