BOCA RATON, Fla. --
 The Old Dominion women's basketball team seeks its 20th win of the season in the regular-season finale at Florida Atlantic on Thursday at 7 p.m. ET in Boca Raton.

The game will be streamed on CUSA.tv and aired on ESPN 94.1, featuring commentary from Doug Ripley. 

This will be the second meeting of the year between ODU and FAU. Back on Jan. 10, the Monarchs dominated the Owls, 87-53, in Norfolk. 

Taylor Edwards (10.9pts, 4.3asts) and Aziah Hudson (8.8pts) both had 16 points in that game. Amari Young (8.1pts, 6.2rebs) recorded her first double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds. Leading scorer Victoria Morris (13.0pts), who has missed the last six games with a foot injury, led ODU with 20 points.

The Monarchs currently sit in a three-way tie for fifth in the Conference USA standings with Marshall and Southern Miss. ODU currently holds the tiebreaker over both of those teams. 

ODU still has a slight chance of moving into the top four and earning a first-round bye. The Monarchs move up to No. 4 if the following occur:
  1) ODU beats FAU
  2) MTSU beats WKU
  3) FIU beats Marshall
  4) Southern Miss beats Charlotte

The C-USA Tournament begins next Wednesday at The Star in Frisco, Texas.
