The Gators walked into the Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville, Tennessee, without one of the most important elements in the game of basketball: height. The team was down its starting 6-foot-1 forward, Kristina Moore, after she injured her arm Sunday against Arkansas, and her absence was evident from the first whistle to the last.
Towering Tennessee players glided with ease to the rim as the undersized Florida team hopelessly tried to stop them.
The Volunteers led the whole way in Thursday’s matchup to hand the Gators women’s basketball team its fourth-straight loss, 67-50.
