LAKE WALES, Fla. – Warner University Men's Basketball is set to hit the road Wednesday night as the Royals travel south to Miami Gardens, Florida, for a SUN Conference showdown against Florida Memorial University. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. inside the FMU Wellness Center.
The Royals enter the midweek matchup riding the momentum of a 72–60 home conference victory over the College of Coastal Georgia, a win that showcased Warner's defensive intensity and balanced offensive attack. As SUN Conference play reaches its midpoint, every possession carries added weight, and the Royals will look to build consistency as they push deeper into league action.
Wednesday's contest also serves as a chance for redemption. The Royals and Lions met earlier this season, with Florida Memorial claiming a 97–74 win. Warner now looks to split the conference series, adjust from the first meeting, and continue trending upward during a crucial stretch of the schedule.
Florida Memorial will defend its home floor with confidence, but the Royals arrive focused and motivated, seeking to translate recent success into a strong road performance. With momentum on their side and SUN Conference standings tightening, Warner understands the importance of delivering a complete 40-minute effort.
