Travis Wallace (13 points) and Matt Sauey (11) led the way offensively for the Ospreys (5-7), who trailed by only nine at halftime.

North Florida is 0-6 all-time against ACC opponents and remains winless on the road (0-7) this season.

The 29-point margin of victory was also the game’s largest lead for the Hokies, who are building decent momentum as conference play approaches.
