History of the Ospreys

The North Florida Ospreys have been a mainstay in the NCAA since their inception in 2009. As one of the newest members of Division I, they have quickly established themselves as an up-and-coming program that is ready to compete for championships. With an impressive record over the past decade, it's no surprise that fans are eager to learn more about this team's history and success.

The Ospreys began to play during their inaugural season in 2009 with a 9–9 record under head coach Matt Kilcullen. The following year, they improved dramatically and finished 15–14 overall while making it to the Atlantic Sun Conference tournament finals before falling short against Belmont University. This was just a sign of things to come as North Florida would win four consecutive A-Sun regular season titles from 2010 through 2013 under then-head coach Matthew Driscoll—the first time any school had achieved such dominance within conference play since its formation back in 1978!

Since joining Division I, North Florida has continued its winning ways by competing at or near .500 every year except for 2018, when they went 13–17 overall due mainly due to injuries suffered by key players throughout much of that campaign’s duration; however even then still managed a second place finish within A-Sun standings behind Liberty University who ultimately won both regular season & tournament titles for 2017/2018 academic year cycle(s).

In addition to being consistent contenders within conference action, each passing term – something which should remain true given the current roster makeup -North Florida also boasts several notable alumni who've gone on make names themselves in professional leagues around the world, including former NBA player Dallas Moore (Houston Rockets) and NFL running back Denard Robinson (Jacksonville Jaguars). Even though these two may be the most recognizable faces associated with the program, many others like them are doing great things thanks to the hard work and dedication put forth by coaches and staff alike over the years!

We can't wait to see what the future holds for us all moving forward Go Ospreys!!
