DELAND, Fla. (AP) --- Kerstie Phills scored a season-high 23 points and grabbed

Florida Gulf Coast (16-1, 5-0 Atlantic Sun Conference) extended the NCAA's
longest road winning streak to 25 games with its 10th straight victory in the
series.

was 9 of 13 from the field, including 4 of 7 from distance, to reach her
highest point total with the Eagles.
Phills scored 10 points in the first quarter, making all four of her shots, to
help build a 17-11 lead. The Eagles led 32-19 at halftime behind 15 points from
Phills, and FGCU started the fourth quarter on a 12-3 run to maintain control.
Kendall Spray added 12 points on four 3-pointers for FGCU, which was 15 of 49
from 3-point range. The Eagles play at Jacksonville State (13-3, 4-0) on
