Jerron Granberry scored a career-high 20 points, Jimmy Williams had 19 points and North Florida dominated Prairie View in an 84-66 win in the Cancun Challenge on Tuesday.

Granberry, who went 7 of 8 from the floor, made all six of his 3-point attempts for the Ospreys (2-3). Matt Sauey finished with 12 points and grabbed eight rebounds.

Prairie View kept the game close in the first half, trailing the Ospreys 28-23 with 3:41 left on Tim Meadows' layup. But that is a close as the Panthers (1-5) would get, as North Florida took it up a notch in the second half.

Sauey's slam dunk off a steal with 5:20 to play gave the Ospreys an 81-51 lead - their largest of the game.
